Sidebar is back, Duolingo’s strategy, AIUX frameworks, accessible outcomes

Weekly curated resources for designers — thinkers and makers.

UX Collective

The news that Sidebar.io was taking a break felt a bit like a heartbreak. Sidebar has been one of my favorite sources to keep up with design, and with content that would make me a better, smarter, more informed designer.

No noise, no endless scrolling, just the good stuff.

5 links a day. That’s it.

Well…

Sidebar is back from its break

The UX Collective is an independent design publication that elevates unheard design voices and helps designers think more critically about their work.

Make me think

  • A journey of craft built on trust, confidence, and focus
    “Experiencing imposter syndrome has taught me to accept feedback — both positive and constructive — with openness and to lean on my teammates for perspective and support. It’s uncomfortable, but it’s also a reminder that the work you’re doing matters.”
  • Consistency means nothing
    “Modern software is a paradox. On one hand it’s more conformist than ever. On the other hand, most are hilariously inconsistent in execution. The majority of software from large orgs leans towards disorder. This is often due to how large orgs operate.”
  • Stop trying to schedule a call with me
    “Chances are, I signed up to see if your tool can do one specific thing. If it doesn’t, I’ve already mentally moved on and forgotten about it. So, when you email me, I’m either actively evaluating whether to buy your product, or I have no idea why you’re reaching out.”
