Why the fuck does every operations app do popouts now? I don't want a simple view of the data, I want all the data so I can compare it together.

It's not like you're saving any bandwidth! All the data is there, I can fucking see it 👀 in the dev tools!

I hate how every product now desperately tries to be like their competitor and everyone fails at it because everyone is copying everyone else.

    What do you mean with popouts?

    @jonas-w you click on something and an entire div pops out of the side from nowhere.

    @theKarlisK it certainly makes me flip the fuck out every time I see one with 10+ tabs of data that is meaningless without all the other tabs data.

    @sariel ah yes fuck them, especially these website that act like another OS, where you have multiple "windows" inside of it where you can drag them around and minimize etc

    @jonas-w exactly!

    @Oktokolo bad form across 20 different tools I use daily then.

    It makes sense if you're checking boxes or flipping values. Hell, I'll even go as far as submitting any form.

    Reading data from 10+ tabs of other related information that you need to flip between to get a "full picture" is just bad design. It's an amateur move that I don't think these well established companies should be allowed to get away with.

    They took the whole "mobile first" mantra too far and now desktop UX is suffering for the 30% of manager minority because they are the only ones complaining.
