I'm feeling totally let down by my brothers and sisters who share the passion for design.

You see, they have backstabbed me with button shadows.

We left this trend in 2010, and now they are secretly bringing it back.

One by one, the dominos fall. Too much pressure from the designfluencers to fall in line.

They claim to like the old trends too. What's old is now new, the cycle repeats.

I don't know how to deal with it except cry salty tears 😭

We learned in the 90's that people hate pop-up windows, and now it's standard for sites interrupt your reading with, "Let us fill your email with junk! Sign up here!".

I suspect the "flash" tag will become standard soon.

It’s all about the $

Site operators know people hate pop ups - but they still generate more money.

At least they're contained within a single tab/window now rather than spawning multiple ones. Makes it easy to close the tab when a page immediately hits me up for my email.

It makes it easy for me to close the tab and go to a page that doesn't prevent me from reading the material.
