Wir haben über Duolingos UX Writing geschrieben:

Garmin nach 15km Lauf um 7 Uhr: "du bist unproduktiv"
Duolingo nach Monaten Pause: "Im Ernst jetzt? Ghostest du mich?"

Warum das eine nervt und das andere motiviert – eine Analyse mit psychologischem Background.

The EU Digital Services Act now bans manipulative design patterns—ushering in a new standard for ethical UX. Discover why we see this as an opportunity for trust and innovation in our latest blog: birdux.studio/en/deceptive-patterns-dsa/

The text in the bottom left corner reads: “ARE YOU HELPING USERS MAKE INFORMED, AUTONOMOUS CHOICES…” in black capital letters.

One thing’s for sure: our old name, “The Geekettez”, was more than just a name. It was an ode to internet culture, an inside joke. But times change—and so it is time to say goodbye. For this reason, we kindly ask: Play us off, Keyboard Cat. 🐱👕🎹 Farewell party is here → birdux.studio/goodbye-the-...
