I just accidentally clicked the “clear all” on the browser URL and wished that it was a bit harder to click but was still there. If it took three clicks to make happen, its still useful in most circumstances but would drastically drop the mistaken clicks

Anyway, what are your unpopular UI opinions?

    I think I agree with most of the comments in this thread, but I feel like your #2 is actually an unpopular opinion! I don’t think I’ve interacted with a scrollbar in the past decade, and the only purpose is to see where on the page I am, which doesn’t feel very important. (something like a pdf viewer where that matters should have a proper page preview anyway)

    So I don’t really need scrollbars at all, and I’m glad they aren’t adding visual clutter.

    (although I’m pretty sure you should be able to force scrollbars to be visble, at least on browsers)
