How does one keep with motivation with applying for UX jobs when it looks so dire out there? Any suggestions much appreciated, I’m pretty close to finding new avenues outside of UX design if I can’t even get a junior role rn.

Italy color inspiration for a new app I’m working on.

open.spotify.com/track/5ISrn8... I know Spotify isn’t the ideal place for musicians, but I’m glad some parts of music history is preserved. One of the most underrated bands Rye Coalition, Jimmy Walkover is a fine decent song for your morning

The “AI jobs apocalypse” heralded by AI CEOs like Dario Amodei and Sam Altman is a story with one particular audience in mind: the bosses who are eager to see it happen

Do any other UX or Web Designers out there have favorite apps or sites I can look at? I really like to analyze other digital products to see how they function. 🤓

@bsky.app can we have an option in the “Intrest” section for adding more categories manually? Or if there is a way, let me know where I can find that. Thank you!

my daylist right now: hardcore youth crew saturday evening. Its only because I'm riding my bike through Prospect Park that I'm blasting this on a JBL speaker and giving no Fs. Plus the worlds on fire so listening to this is more appropo than ever. Creativity against fascism.

Who here is dreading making your portfolio site look half way decent so you can get a job. Anxiety induced moments as a UX designer rn 😬

Spring in Brooklyn is finally here, no more cold dark winter days. Pictures from my backyard and the beautiful park near my house overlooking the Hudson and East River.

Who thinks Figma will actually go after Lovable in court? Even though they technically own the trademark for Dev Mode, could they actually enforce this? Reminds me of when Momofuku tried doing the same thing with “Chili Crisp” “Chili Crunch” nonsense.

Just got introduced to Tempo, Cursor and Bolt. Going to experiment with these new AI tools to help with designing apps and web extensions. I know a little coding, but with these new tools, I can make small apps to hone my UX skills. Let me know what your thoughts are!

Went on an offline detox for a month to refresh. Went hiking, touch grass and swam. Now back to looking for new positions and figuring out how far behind I am on the tech front ‘cause of the month long detox lol. Does anyone meet irl anymore? Looking for NYC area UX/UI/Product Designers to chat.

I've only been doing freelance work for the last couple of years but I feel so far behind. Pivoting into UX from another life path was and IS still very hard. I'm competing with college grads, senior UXers and the mass layoffs of the last few years. Trying to stay optimistic but tired too lol.

I'm only on Bluesky and LinkedIn now for UX social media shenanigans, everything else is a dumpster fire. I don't have time for any other BS this world is throwing at me rn. Lets connect for chats or projects. Glad we can be adults on here 🙏🏾

Starting my hell journey of looking for a new UX position in 2025, wish me luck!

Its wild how good some AI is with voices. Just got my yearly music wrap up by Spotify. I'm listening to their short podcast of my music journey of this year lol

What skills do you all think that will be important in 2025? My last post about trying to learn new Figma skills got some response, so I would really like to follow that up with essential skills we all as UXer should at least know of if not have hands on experience for this coming new years 😎

Does anyone else feel like you’re behind what @figma.com is constantly doing ? I’m try my best to learn all their new features but once I feel comfortable enough to utilize it in the design process , they come up with new ones. Figma please, I love you guys, but let me breathe lol #UX #UI #figma

Does anyone have resources available for navigating WCAG v2.0-2.2 that is a good read and informative too? Accessibility in UX design is something I’m really interested in. Any recommendations appreciated 🤘🏾

For UX industry seniors : why are there so little junior roles? Is it a company culture thing or a whole industry thing? #UX
