abusive and patronizing practice called A/B testing

Why? Practical data on the effect of a change is 1000x better than asking the user or more commonly, just guessing.

For most bad interface parts, when you ask the UI guy why it’s like that, you either get:

That’s just the way they made it

Some imagined use case literally nobody follows

They watched users using it wrong and stuck guide rails in

It’s not really wasted if it makes it less mentally taxing to read.

You literally cannot dismiss the “this website looks better in the app” nag if you don’t have an account. Death to Silicon Valley. Fucking soulless demons.

I think it’s meant to be white space, which I don’t mind, but something about it just looks really shit and poorly executed.
