Author here! Yup exactly! I don't mind that it's telling me things (well, I do, but that's another post), I just want it to tell me _why_ instead of giving me a weak suggestion with no context so I can make a judgement on how to proceed. Feels like a passive aggressive mom telling you "Maybe try on another outfit" when what she really means is "I think your shirt is horrific and I can't be seen with you in it."

Hello! I really, really liked your article a lot and I'm happy I get to tell it to you! The drawings are just cherry on top.

I absolutely hate these types of UIs. I can't stress enough how much revulsion I feel towards this kind of bullshit.

And we are not even talking yet about the "screen vs buttons in a car" problem.

what i really hate is the "remind me later" buttons. I want to say a plain "no" but the app won't let me. It promises not to respect my decision right there in the popup itself!
