  • Yeah, I remember this at the time and while a lot of people were relishing the schadenfreude, there was still the perennial point that when UI/UX is any more difficult than it needs to be for a loathesome person, it’s equally difficult for everyone else, too. And when that UI is repsonsible for fundamental safety and it’s overcomplexity results in confusion during an emergency… well, yeah, there it is.

    I can’t find the photo I took, which is annoying, but I was working in schools a couple of years back and in the IT room there was a huge display on the wall with the title “Amazing Things We Can Do With Computers” and the list was, literally, this:

    • YouTube
    • Facebook
    • TikTok
    • Amazon
    • Spotify
    • WhatsApp
    • FaceTime

    FWIW, Chromebooks can be used as more than just web browser devices. The real problem is who is setting - and teaching - the curriculum. Some other schools had amazing curriculums but they usually had one, single, solitary, clued-up teacher.
