If you’re bored of your Mac keyboard, try this app once.

This app turns every keypress into a satisfying mechanical keyboard experience.

@aleksksaa i'm inspired by this! would love to implement my own version on my portfolio

[Tommy Geoco 🇺🇸 @designertom]

I’m rooting for @zoink and the @figma team.

It’s because of this insane dude that so many designers have been able to participate in the financial gain of the golden age of software.

I remember when they opened their office 2 blocks from my apartment and Dylan was placing a bet on multiplayer canvas.

A loud minority of designers swore it was a terrible idea, and he dgaf. Full send conviction.

An absolute dawg.

From the rise of Sketch to Figma, and now what appears to be Claude if our latest survey is any indicator, software design has only been made better by founders with some big fookin balls.

I don’t envy the fight Figma has ahead of them. But this team has done it in their DNA.

And frankly, it’s design founders like Dylan, Karri, and Jorn that have directly inspired me to place an absurd bet on myself with design storytelling, an area that is quickly becoming saturated by people with more resources than our small team.

And I also dgaf. Full send.

It’s easy to criticize the efforts of people trying to fight for good design by placing insane bets like these.

But this is how lore is written, becomes canon.

This is also exactly why this is still the best time in history to be a designer.

strange how instagram has lived long enough to be a cesspool today. unfortunately culture itself has changed too. whether or not it adapted TO or FROM social media is another story.

as they say, you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

The other day I was scrolling Instagram and missing the days when people would post photos, little slices of life, genuine moments.

Now it's just countless reels trying to sell you something, AI slop and brainrot memes.

@betty__shin @Cursor this is so cute! right now my fits are all smushed in a folder on my phone gallery 😭

[arianne @ariomidesign]

@iliazolotukhin thanks for the thoughtful response. more experienced designers should think this way!

[arianne @ariomidesign]

[divyansh @Divyansh91565]

Who is gonna tell him..

[arianne @ariomidesign]

where can i find more people (and recruiters and companies) who think this way

[Michal Malewicz @michalmalewicz]

It doesn't matter you can build faster now.

The slop bucket is overflowing.

People need to see visible effort, craft and passion in products, otherwise they fade into obscurity almost instantly.

Being genuine as a maker is more important than being efficient.

[arianne @ariomidesign]

still in college but i feel like everything i'm learning isn't real anymore

[hayden @haydendevs]

graduated college just a few months ago and literally everything i learned is deprecated

[arianne @ariomidesign]

...and now we're here!

I wish I could work on it again with my newly equipped skills from a formal education in UX/UI. But until then, I'll keep building to the stars! ✨

Two days ago, the Artemis II crew came home.

Five years ago, I was the only designer in a 14-person engineering team competing in a NASA spacesuit interface challenge for the Artemis mission.

I call it "The thing that started it all".

#Artemis #UX #UI

[arianne @ariomidesign]

To be witnessing history like this-- I'm still in so much awe. I'd like to thank @NASA for this human experience & for kickstarting my UX journey.

I was just a graphic designer who stumbled their way into the project. Taught myself the design fundamentals during the pandemic...
