Dribbble stupid comments

    People on Dribbble don't necessarily care about user experience or originality. They care about aesthetics. I've seen some shots that would render less-than-satisfactory user experience in a real-world scenario, but they receive hundreds of 'likes' because "IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!"

    The community is to blame, though. Dribbblers are attempting to cater to those who are going to like their shots. If everyone was ecstatic about showcasing user experience and solving problems, you'd likely see a very different Dribbble.

    What we need is an alternative to Dribbble. Let's make that happen, shall we?

      I don't see the problem with focusing on just aesthetics. Sometimes you have a nice idea in your head and you just want to get it out there without thinking too much about the UX.

      For the most part it's just concept which will never get developed.

      Because you can't create an awesome experience and solve problems whilst looking nice, right?

      Everything thats 'great UX' and 'solves problems' is ugly is it?

      People often say (and I'm sure you'd be one of them) that design isn't just how something looks. Thats true, but do note the 'just'.
