I get your point but they’re all the same: colored/saturated: on. White/grey: off
True enough, but there's still UX improvements to be made. Most toggles you could fit the word "On" and "Off" within the blank area of the switch to have text that indicates its state as well. Or maybe even vertical toggles that mimic physical light switches.

Yeah, my phone is just an accessory I keep in my pocket, but only when I know I may need it for something, e.g. time or calls. Sometimes I do not even take it with myself. No reason for me to do that. I just hit 30.
I feel you guys, but do you read and write here from your laptops? I never come here from a desktop browser, only a smartphone.

It doesn’t do the internal navigation. And since React doesn’t have built-in support for pushState (Yes I know React Router, but it really wants a hash router), you really need extra work for an internal router. And therefore, every beginner dev does it manually and slightly inconsistently. So yes, React is absolutely the driver, same as Java is guilty for Guava existing, because it should have been built-in and perf…
> Yes I know React Router, but it really wants a hash router This doesn't sound right. The history API has been widely supported by all major browsers (including mobile) since 2013. React was also first released in 2013. Did React Router ever ship a version without a HistoryRouter.
You would be plentiful right to say it’s a programmer’s skills issue. But you have a very stinky pattern of masses of problems of programmers skills issue, leading to 90% React apps breaking the history.
I say it’s React’s fault. It should be built-in.

#574Seniors make up 4-5% of the online population. As a cohort they're growing. Cognitive decline, visual acuity, memory all fade. So these are otherwise competent people who made good livings, now struggling with design choices with consequences for them.
There is simply no single abiding rule. It may be a red box, or a yellow circle, it may be words or a logo or a skuomorphism in cartoon sense.
I would suspect toddlers are the same. Who knows?
Gov.uk is exemplary for understanding this problem.
Material design isn't orthogonal in this, because it's flat aspects de-emphasis any clear distinction where prior coding models tended to have a gui look to buttons which lay outside this design imperative.

But it has a 30% increase in the key attribute of “rebelliousness”!
Reeks of "we asked about 1000 attributes and took our favourite ones that happened to go up" despite those increases not being statistically significant.
And did it "piss off" anyone else? Alan? Lisa? Josh? Yana? Katy?
And who else felt this product is "messed up"? Alan? Lisa? Josh? Yana? Katy?

#577As someone who works in UX, I admire all the work the Google UX team puts into Material: tons of documentation, UI kits, theme generation tools, a lot of thinking on systematizing the color combinations, etc. However, this article has a lot of "Pepsi Logo" vibes ( https://www.scribd.com/document/541500744/Pepsi-Arnell-02110... ). I never confirmed if this was a hoax, but it was made into many news websites at the tim…
