Website and UI/UX has been going to shit for years now.

Two quick tests:

When a form pops up, is the first field focused?

Can I press ENTER to submit?

If I have to reach for the mouse for either of these, it's a failure on the part of the developer.

It worked flawlessly under Linux, it's just that it didn't have drivers for the new Windows.

Right?

To be fair, they didn't have cell phone cameras and a social media history full of bright red hats back then, either.

Perl had (has?) an error message that is basically "When you want to use 'print' with a file handle, you don't put a comma"

Like ... if you KNOW what I'm trying to do maybe just roll with it?
