There's a Chrome Extension he made based on this: https://anatolyzenkov.com/stolen-buttons/button-stealer I used it for a bit until I realized... I probably didn't want a third party reading all my traffic. But I did like having it for a bit. (It is linked from the page, but given how the whole page is CTAs... it's hard to notice!)

Why I third party? Aren’t the stolen buttons stored locally?

I think due to the nature of extensions.

I may have missed one by looking at this huge dump, but NONE of the "buttons" I saw there actually looked/felt like a button. Something I can feel that I press it down and it gives proper visual feedback, like a little 3D effect. I'm old-school. :)

I really enjoyed Motif and the general flat clean look that came with eg TWM and co. I do have a soft spot for the candy Mac styles, and win2k is still my favorite windows release

I unironically prefer the UI of old Bootstrap:

They may have peaked with 2.0:

I have noticed on occasion websites with a missing button. Now I know what happened. Finally, closure.

The legend of the Button-Eater who comes out from his lair somewhere deep inside the Web.

I had my button stolen but it's not in this inventory. The perpetrator is still out there somewhere parading it or selling it on the black market. I'm still losing sleep over it. I lost my job, wife and car. Still praying for justice to be served one day.

I reported it to the FBI but still no response from them. This shit is serious guys and when will it end?

Are we in flat design for way too long or is this a recent idea and the collection is also very recent?

It’s definitely been too long, since around 15 years ago.

If you blockchain your buttons they are much harder to steal.

Just putting this out there for those who are not in the know. This type of crisis is easily avoidable.
