Refreshing take on exploring the "delight" aspect of UX with lots of nuance as well. I read too many comments on here that seem a little a too spartan in their perspective on good UX, but it feels silly to be spartan on a topic that is so, so far from being solved.
Yep. Most people here tend to think that software should be as unfriendly and retro as possible so it feels like “real computing, you know, from the golden age” which is just absurd. Computers should be a delight to use. Interfaces should delight users. The experience should make the user feel good. That was always the point, right from the beginning.
