Juniors focus on the looks.

Seniors focus on how it fits the business's strategy.

@RinodeBoer Sad though that the best ones are either customs or Bricks. I hope Elementor catches up soon. It is great for marketing sites, but for high-end web design (visual wise), there is still work to do.

@ItsPeterDesign I'm genuinely curious: what is the real difference exactly?

[Leonardo Iob @LeonardoIob]

@samharrisonco I feel the opposite, honestly, at least for UX/UI design.

I see too much people here posting about visual stuff, without consideration for UX or strategy.

Linkedin is different, I find much more value there.

@mgaak1dev Yeah, about 120 more dollars per year!

I see these kinds of UI comparison posts all the time:

What is best, design version A or B?

They all have a simple answer:

The one that sells.

@BrettFromDJ I genuinely don't understand all the hate towards auto-layout and components. If it is applied correctly, it speeds up work and the scalability of a project. Never had an issue with it so far.

In the era of AI slop, authenticity online will be the new gold standard for producing high-quality content.

@Praha37v Great!

Failures are just experiments gone bad.

Small failures (sometimes even big ones) are often starting points for innovation and learning.

@0x5am5 Really interesting feature! Branching is definitely something many LLMs chat apps lack.

@oykun Exactly, design is often confused with aesthetics, when in reality, it is problem-solving.

@celiaripoll_ Interesting, nice move in preserving the previous logo meaning while bringing a new symbol!

@robably__ There is a saying in Italy: "Il calzolaio ha sempre le scarpe rotte", which roughly translates to "the shoemaker always wears broken shoes"

All designers will soon have to move from surface-level work to core strategy thinking. This is the unique skill you'll have to invest in the AI era.

@mgaak1dev Cloudflare, best option IMO.

@0x5am5 This is unfortunately true. Got the Apple Intelligence update on my Mac here in Italy too. Opened the assistant once and never touched it since.

Let's hope that the partnership with Anthropic brings some beef to the current experience.
