Keeping your YouTube subscriptions private is *opt-in*. Worse, there's a #UX #darkpattern nudging you to not set them to #private. Typically, one turns *on* public features--It's opposite here; you have to turn *on* private settings.

Um auf #Kahoot ein Abo zu kündigen, muss man sich durch sieben Seiten klicken (sofern man den Einstieg findet). Auf fünf davon ist man mit einem #DarkPattern konfrontiert, welches einem vom Kündigen abhalten soll.

Agree that opt out bs is a dark pattern to be avoided unless it is quantitatively known that a vast majority of people using the thing want the new feature.

I made something and you are going to use it mentality is part of enshitification.

Pour expliquer ça, il faut d'abord se demander : qu'est-ce qu'un dark pattern ? Gee lit un très gros journal, « Wikipédia, version papier » : « “Une interface utilisateur qui a été volontairement conçue pour tromper ou manipuler un utilisateur” » La Geekette : « C'est la combientième fois que tu cites cette définition ? » Gee : « La troisième*. » Authentique, la première fois en 2025 pour Marre des bannières de cookies ?, la deuxième début 2026 pour L'alternative.

My GP's online system ends: "tick here to consent using your personal data". Only by ticking it does the "submit" button for the whole form become active. It'll *stay* active by UNticking - but will people do that? Is this a #darkpattern - you're pushed to doing something you might not want to do?

Ad-supported news sites are so unreadable, the ads are basically paying to be ignored. Some websites I don't read anymore as I can't see the content.

Ein prächtiges Exemplar eines #DarkPattern: Nach einem langen Test auf der Wensite #PhysiotestCH wird man gewahr, dass es das Resultat nur bei Abschluss eines Probeabos gibt. Das Gefühl: Abzocke statt Fürsorge. #Clickomaniach

I'm gonna say it: if I click an "unsubscribe" link in an email and I'm taken to a page where you have anything other than a message saying "You're unsubscribed," you're adding friction and trying to minimize the potential that I follow through.
