UX Writers & Content Designers

I've moved to Mastodon. Here's your invite. mastodon.social/invite/8gVBhPG2

@WritersofColor Please do not believe that companies who "publish" their pay scales are in any way transparent. There are many ways to dissemble.

writers of color are invited to review this running list of employers that are explicitly declining to improve their own diversity through pay transparency

One little word does so much work here. Icons are indecipherable to me. I need the word "On" to understand that the Focus feature is active.

Current capabilities in text-to-image modeling are stunning. Join me as @adbreind leads us in an exploration. This is a free in-person event in Portland. See you there! #diffusion #texttoimage #pdx PyData PDX IRL: Text-to-Image Diffusion Models meetup.com/pydata-pdx/eve…

If all else fails, use shame.

Grab this now. Thanks @jasinfox! linkedin.com/posts/jasongfo…

@typothermya @GaySpaceshipGms Great news, Christie.

I've been pretty private about this so far, but wanted to share that I recently got engaged to @GaySpaceshipGms. I asked if she wanted to build a life together and stay with me for the rest of our lives, and she said yes!!!!

Come work with me! I’m hiring. linkedin.com/posts/activity…

Well, ⁦@scottkubie⁩, you hit all the high points. 😂 linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

One fundamental mistake software design teams make is behaving like they are the main character in their user's life story, and not the other way around. Design as if your user -didn't want to use your product or develop expertise -hasn't thought about your product for months

OK @Meetup! Please give me the agency to say no. The [X] simply isn’t visible on a typical iPhone although it’s visible in this screen shot. Test much?

This week we released Polaris v10. This is the 7th major Polaris release in my time at @Shopify and my favorite. It's the most data-driven and really demonstrates the impact of design systems at scale. 🧵Some highlights...

@ChelseaLarsson Mine is tomorrow. Can’t wait for part of my body to be violently transformed into a pancake.

It's here: the ✨ #DALLE Prompt Book ✨, first edition! Free to download, it features 82 pages of artistic inspiration with over 300 examples of #DALLE2 images! Here's what's inside... 🧵

So this year is just gonna keep getting worse! 😂

Love to see opportunities for content design / UX writing open up across the world. @ahiteva you are an amazing advocate. I can't help but think of our dear @andreadrugay and how proud she would be. Thank you for making space. 🌿 #uxwriting #contentdesign @ContentDesignES

This is a joke, but, truth be told, we are exposed to much more serious UX manipulation every day - things that aren’t this obvious.

Great thread, @scottkubie! UX writing is so much more than mechanics and words. I’ve always loved the approach that @TheUXCC takes to training, and I’ve given higher consideration to their students.
