> Well, good luck finding that setting buried several menus deep within their interface. Howcome noone ever solved this problem? After all these years of UI evolution. It still mostly sucks to find the setting you need to change something that bothers you. There are no suggestions to customize your experience right there when it happens. How about giving user opportunity to reply with a frowny face (or Thanks, I hate it) and if they do, direct them to a spot where they can partially or completely disable the thing that happened. Give them browsable and searchable history of the things they customized. Give them llm powered search for options in your app so they don't have to search what to click on random forums. Why nobody figured out how to bake this directly into a default control library for each platform is a disgrace. |

In Windows 95 there sometimes was a `?` in the title bar, and you could click on things, and help would be shown.
Not a stretch of the imagination that it could a) document how to tune things and b) give you a link to jump straight to where to tune those things.

But with yearly iterations it's a humongous task to have all these little tidbits of documentation stay consistent across time.
