Rant: From my aunt's computer chaos, a lightbulb moment about pop ups
I was helping my aunt with her slow computer. She just clicked through all the pop ups without reading them. It hit me that we do this because most are useless or scary. Now I get why simple design changes everything. Anyone had a similar wake up call?

To make me read it, design pop-ups as questions.

Lol, pop-ups as questions? That's like a stranger asking you your life story while you're just trying to buy socks online. "Do you ever think about the meaning of life?" buddy, I'm here for a recipe, not therapy. They could ask the most wild thing and I'd still smash that close button. It's all just a fancy way to interrupt people, let's be real.
