inside a lot those communities its all like "look at this amazing product" but nowhere do they talk abt who might misuse stuff. in the real world we gotta think beyond happy path cases
i mean, come o n
responsive designs should be resilient right? not just look good on phones & desktops
but protect users too
what if someone's building a toxic app and uses our design patterns as blueprint? thats where edge case thinking fails us. u cant make assumptions abt who'll interact w/ ur stuff
so yeah, next time im designing smth gonna ask myself "who might use this in harmful ways?" & try to block those paths off from the start instead of just hoping they dont find them
