I hope it just starts the erasure process without a need to confirm! 😅

MacOS...AMIRITE ?

The three dots after 'format disk' means it's going to open up a new dialogue box. If you're worried, get better aim?

Imagine if Apple built Fighter Jets

Erase isn't that dangerous.

They're gonna ask for confirmation at least twice before proceeding for erasing right? But I do agree it's a horrible position to keep.

Safe landing v crash landing

Reminds me of VM workstation

If it dies it dies

This is why I never click on those icons.

Calling it ‘eject’ is also a choice. Does anyone still expect a tray to open or a cassette to pop out? Simply creating a bit more space between list items will help imho.

I mean if they weren't next to each other .. it would have looked really weird ... Also erase always asks for a pop up confirmation..

There is definitely someone at Apple whose job is to create these weird inconveniences

they should tweak the font so they look even more similar

Well not surprising it's the same people that put the charge port at the bottom of a mouse

Whoever approved this...

What the fuuuhhhh…🤔

I'm no disciple of Steve Jobs ... but this is the kind of stupid shit he wouldn't have stood for. God the Mac experience needs an overhaul!

I hate this so much!! I’m sure there is some warning if I click it by accident but it still makes me nervous!

For six years I pressed the right thumb wheel to ask my Model 3 to play HAEVN. Now that same action tells it to drive itself.

On Google Keep “uncheck all items“ and “delete checked items” are right next to each other. ☹️

What the big deal? Have you ever erased when you meant to eject? No! Because of the ellipses. That’s why they’re there.

That's a Gordon Ramsey recipe for disaster.

The “…” means there is a dialog of some sort

Destructive vs Action buttons.

Yep. Makes me pause every. single. time.

It reminds me of the Power Mac 6100 that had the power button in the same general area as a PC’s floppy drive eject button. It wasn’t a big deal if you only used Macs and never used a floppy eject button, but if you switched between Macs and PCs regularly, it was an awful design choice.

Feel same about FB having hug heart and laughing reax next to each other.

Don't think this is a wise move from a #design point of view 🤔

This was all over my threads months ago. ♻️

Right up there putting reply next to reply all in email clients

I….I. Didn’t know you could do that (Dave Chapelle voice lol)

yeah that's bad, I've hit the wrong one on a couple of occasions

you just know when something is designed by engineers

Is it Google?

Meanwhile Windows believes it's a good idea to eject the C: drive.

They chose violence

Does it ask for confirmation first at least? Although, I do realize most of use don't read those, and assume we know what we're doing.

hahaha. Yeah what can possibly go wrong

These little UI problems are relatively minor most of the time. An annoyance. For me...it's a serious problem. Right now I've been getting random twitches in my right arm...including random clicks of my mouse. Crap UI like this is a minefield for me right now. MRI later this month.

Kinda #stupid design, yeah ?

After 34 years as an IT professional, it's 2nd nature to be cautious when ejecting disks, because for YEARS "Format" and "Eject" have been right next to each other in Windows. I know... "Format" isn't immediate, but still... It's dumb menu placement.

Pure UX

Yes, indeed ‘a’ choice. A risky one 🤣

on my Mac, if you don't 'eject' an exfat thumb drive/HD, then insert it into a windows, you get an error message (from windows). Nothing major, not a damaged disc, but a minor annoyance.

Lol!! Exactly! I just shared this before seeing your reply 🤣 Windows has had this menu placement for YEARS.

Eras does prompt first iirc but still, I would prefer it to be lower in the menu. Also I usually drag and drop to trash to eject anyway.

Living life on the edge dude

I always thought this about “pin tweet” and “delete tweet” being right next to each other. So easy to either delete your best work or promote your worst work 😬

@raycast.com solves this with an extension: www.raycast.com/johndturn/si... It works great!

it is easy to misclick while stressed at work tho. bro is valid

This is kind of like “Not interested” and “Don’t recommend channel” on the YouTube Apple TV app… They’re right beside each other. I accidentally hit “Don’t recommend channel” all the time, and there’s no way to undo it. That channel is just gone forever! 🤣
