    Triumph of visual design over interactive design. These days, most “designers” only care about graphics visually. The much deeper science of how people use and understand things is beyond them. Worse, they think the problem is that everybody else does not “get” visual design.

    Style over substance.











  • There are no really good alternatives to Adobe.

    Or at least, while there may be programs that are good enough to keep you from going to Adobe to begin with, those options will not be good enough to satisfy someone that is using Adobe already.

    It is one of the areas that Open Source and Linux lags the most.









  • UX people cannot make their own apps without hiring devs ( requiring money ).

    Devs can create Open Source apps but they cannot afford to hire UX guys so the UX sucks.

    Larger projects can attract both devs and UX guys but getting to popularity is hard and, even then, coordinating these diverse teams ( eg. dev and UX ) take project management skill and effort. That is yet another skill set that has to volunteer to be paid.

    For a proprietary app, you simply hire the people you need. When you start, you need UX either to attract uses or money. So, UX is one of you first roles you spring for if you are proprietary ( depending on the market ).
