Anna | UI/UX designer |Framer developer

I think coding is slowly killing my design taste. ever since I started spending more time inside IDEs, something’s shifted in my brain. earlier, my default mode was pure design, obsessing over spacing, micro-interactions, tiny details that no one notices but everyone feels. now I start with constraints. scalability, edge cases, timelines, dev effort. “can we build this?” shows up way before “does this feel right?” and the weird part is I still see everything. I know when something feels off, when it could be pushed further, when it lacks that sharpness. I just… don’t go there anymore. I cut iterations faster. I compromise earlier. I settle for “this works” instead of “this feels right.” I think being close to code rewires you. you start filtering ideas through feasibility, and slowly, taste takes a backseat to practicality. craft gets replaced by closure. and it’s such a silent shift you don’t even realise it’s happening. is this growth or is this how designers slowly lose their edge without even noticing it ?

I’ve been seeing talks about this filing of taxes deadline for March 30th failure of which would attract penalties. But I find it ridiculous that there was no massive educational campaign on how to file, the deadlines months ahead. Just plain threats and vibes. Ridiculous
