I have to navigate an interface like this to access resources from my school and it jams my brain. I don’t know if it’s badly designed but my brain doesn’t know what to click or where to point my eyes when I’m looking for something. I literally have to read each element, visualize what the words represent, and compare it to a visualisation of the thing I’m looking for to guess what I need to click on which proves to be very cognitively straining. I know it sounds pathetically simple but it is an additional dopamine hurdle I have to overcome before I can do any homework or revision. I don’t have this problem on most webpages. I wonder whether it could be ADHD related because my classmates always seem to find relevant resources in the system for things that I turn to Google for because this page is so impermeable.

Here’s another example:

    Two? Colleague from our IT team reckons it’s more like six.

    New Teams has more options for opening new windows, but it’s also more stubbornly determined to open docs in the web app (embedded within Teams of course).

    Shifts is a straight no for my team. And don’t get me started on Planner…
