Hacker News debate: are UX redesigns driven by promotions?
Original: Ask HN: How can we stop UX people from changing UIs to get promotions?
A question on Hacker News asks how companies can stop user experience designers from overhauling familiar interfaces mainly to generate promotion-worthy achievements. The discussion taps into widespread user frustration with frequent, often unwelcome redesigns of popular apps and websites, and raises questions about workplace incentives in tech, where visible change can matter more than usability in career advancement.
Why now: Users are frustrated by constant redesigns of familiar software and are debating whether workplace incentives, not usability, drive them.
