It's wild that like 5 years in, Twitter is still trying to coerce me into invading my contacts list's Twitter accounts. There is no button that says, "No, I don't want to follow my mom's nonexistent Twitter," only "yes please keep asking me this but more slowly"

If a human being acted like this, you would be well advised to get as far away from them as possible. But we've all kind of been trained to accept this behavior from a computer, and we absolutely shouldn't. Humans made it be this way, and they did it for a reason

I'm not that old, but even I remember a time when software was still broadly understood as a tool first and foremost -- there was an implicit contract that programs did what you told them to do, a 1:1 mapping of input to output. Now ALL software is what used to be called Nagware

Design can be abusive because its designed by people. Often with a goal to take advantage of the userbase rather than serve them. Since most free-to-use users-are-product softwares like social media aren't meant for the users themselves.

I for one don't hesitate to call it abusive. It's a microaggression but microaggressions in aggregate are intensely distressful. Switching settings behind your back is gaslighting

It was years and years ago now but the way I felt when I got harassed by my boss for being late due to that 'oops we broke the alarm clock feature' phone update still sticks with me as someone who often just doesn't get woken up by alarms and sets 4-6 of them

Like when Chrome on Android won't let me permanently select desktop mode. They say it's because if I selected desktop mode and always got desktop mode I'd be confused. Seriously. So it just silently reverts back.
