2020 is the year of pragmatic optimism.
Fabricio Teixeira Caio Braga
"It is the year for designers to conscientiously improve not only the digital products people use every day, but also our companies and our industry."
Fabricio Teixeira and Caio Braga are two designers who believe deeply in the transformative power of user experience. Sure, a lot of information about UX is available online for free. "But there’s a lot. UX is becoming increasingly popular, and with that comes a lot of clutter, noise and disorientation.
"UX Collective is our attempt at curating some of that content and giving it back to the community in a more structured and digestible way." They've been doing this with a great website since 2016.
"After curating and sharing 2,411 links with 358,917 designers all around the world, we have identified a few of the trends our industry has been writing, talking, and thinking about."
This is a long but very important and reassuring read. Yes, the system is broken. But no, it's not too late for careful and conscientious designers to help make it right.
