thanks for the work kison.

I will reiterate a point I made in chat though.

I think the colored Usernames are very bad user experience. In chat, you want to draw the users attention to the message that they are going to read, differences in color for the user names instead draw the users attention to the username itself and not the message. This is ultimately very distracting to me. Though I get the idea behind the change I think the implementation ultimately leads to a much worse design and makes chat more difficult to follow as its intended because the different colors make it harder to focus on the messages.

And I am a UX professional and you are a person who does not have any clue what you're talking about.

You can say "I like this" but you can't say "this is good UX"

the first statement can be correct. the second statement is objectively false.

given that I made my post based around arguments for why this is bad UX, the response "I think its fine" is disrespectful and nonsensical especially since it didn't offer any counterpoint to the UX theory points I brought up which are 100% valid regardless of if any given user finds it enjoyable.

Which is why I responded in kind. My opinion wasn't me simply saying "I don't like this." it was saying "from the perspective of UX design, these are poor design choices for the following reasons." Saying "naahhhhhhh I think its fine" was glib and irrelevant to what I was saying.

and lets not forget the obvious elephant in the room about what he's saying...

And this? This is just you being a fucking asshole. And its not even correct.
