A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Truth, but it's three more key presses when I can just click the bookmark under the address bar instead of clicking the address bar. Takes you three times longer!

Idk dude, I feel like there is more wrist movement involved in mouse control than typing.

I fucking hate the death of keyboard shortcuts and not being able to reliably tab through fields. Particularly in UIs designed for data entry.

All our patient care reporting software has gone to a touch-screen centric UI ... when half the fields still require typing information in.

I still find myself tabbing while signing in but it almost never works.

Unless you're like me with folders, sub folders, and sub sub folders of bookmarks. Sometimes it's easier to just search. It would be great if I can do a search within my bookmarks!

Firefox can search your bookmarks. I'd be surprised if another browser couldn't, but it probably isn't as easy as just using the address bar

I was only joking but you're right, this is already a thing, for Chrome too. TIL.

For any Chrome users here, type @bookmarks before your search in the address bar.
