Discord steals focus 3 separate times on startup. It’s so goddam infuriating. Battle.net does at least twice.
Steam does as well.
I found out recently that KDE has a “Focus stealing prevention” in their settings and it has been glorious.
I’m pretty sure that 5 is a feature because the button that moved is usually replaced with a clickable ad.

Nice, a relevant xkcd that I didn’t guess before clicking the link! Well done!
- Getting users to post text instead of screenshots of text.
There’s ALT text.
Not in the OP. For primarily text content, images of them are pretty pointless: there are links to source, quotes, etc.
That’s pretty good: could that go in the OP body or is editing not possible?
Would be cool, if we could cross-post Mastodon posts…

My other pet peeves besides these:
- Android locking screen a second before I jab the screen, every single time
- YouTube app. Android and smart TVs. What’s wrong with it? (Vague overall gesturing) It’s garbage. How is one of the biggest tech companies in the world able to ship this and expect people to pay money for subscriptions is beyond me.
Android in general is trash.
