I wish apps, including web apps and PWAs like #Figma made use of Jakob’s Law:
> Users spend most of their time on other sites/in other apps. This means they prefer it to work the same as all the others.

A collection of nineteen key maxims that designers must consider when building user interfaces
Due to the Selective Attention Principle,
“The dispenser for delicious cookies should be different to the one for packaged suppositories”
- Cookies don’t stay in that package for weeks, so why have a “number of cookies left” slot?
- Affordances to get quickly to the cookies should be met or you face user frustration.
Who’s this packaging for? A small store that sell onesies.

Just finished reading "Laws of UX" book by Jon Yablonski. This contains lots of great guideline ideas for anyone involved with user experience. The section where the author talks about ethics in design was really good to think about too.
