There's a `--trash` option for the import command. It's not the default behavior though. I recommend deleting the source photos once you've verified Elodie has organized the photos how you'd like.
The best way to draw a circle in gimp is still the awkward select -> foreground fill workflow. At this point this example is beating a dead horse, but the horse shall continue to be beaten until a proper ellipse tool is added.
These are all products the ux direction of which is likely influenced more by corporate power dynamics. Sure, uxers are involved, the real power they have is a different question.
Everyone’s got their preferences, quality of ux is by definition subjective. That is what makes these discussions hard. Naming any examples will always have ”nah i don’t like that product” as counterpoint.
An equally weird trope us UX practitioners dumbing down UIs. It simply depends on who we are designing for.
As soon as developers actively hang out with real users in real life and genuinely observe them without intervening, i’m all for oss projects without uxers.

Game dev here. Play tests are excruciatingly painful. Spend some time showing off a game and you can see why so much ux these days are "boring" and samey. Deviating off the beaten road takes so much extra polish compared to seeing how competition controls work and copying that.
I’m definitely going to read those, but even without doing so “inviting the users” as a concept carries a lot of potential. We were tasked to rewrite a very old windows app for backend grocery store sales in a web/Laravel/Vue application, and product spent _months_ if not longer sitting with sales reps, watching them use the old tool, and asking them what they would want to see - how does it work? Can it be more efficient? What do you dread most when using this?
The end result was a real pleasure both to write and to use.
One could claim it is a self reflection tool where the point is not the claims at face value, but the value lies in the activity itself of focusing, of directing your mind to look at and feel your existence from a different/wide perspective. Which is true about many pedagogical tools.
The concrete results would thus be highly specific to the subject and their learning process on what they themselves deem relevant.
that gives away too much information, instead i'd go with something that tells you that you've found the best solution. you'll still be able to know whether or not to keep going, but you get no information that makes finding the ideal solution easier.
I’ve seen repeated reports where OneDrive and Windows 11 enable cloud sync or folder backup without clear consent. People describe cases where Desktop/Documents/Pictures start syncing automatically, eating up free quota, and later deleting or moving files in ways users didn’t intend. Some users even wake up to full sync turned on and then can’t easily revert it.
That behavior feels like a dark pattern: defaults nudging toward cloud-storage upsells and confusing opt-outs that can result in data confusion or loss. Is this intentional design at Microsoft or just sloppy UX engineering?
