Or continue with download only
I mean, the bypass isn’t exactly hidden.
No, come on. This is a dark pattern. It’s easy for someone technically-inclined, but most users see only the big obvious buttons and skip right over what looks like it could just be an irrelevant footnote at the bottom. My parents would absolutely end up creating accounts and be frustrated about it, but I’m also willing to bet most of my friends who aren’t in tech would do the same.
Maybe you should highlight it with a red circle, because I still don’t see it.
The problem is that they needed to have that big blue button be the download, and the “log in or sign up” should be that small, black text below it.
Better for the UX, and less of a dark pattern.
needs few circles around the X in the corner too.
bonus points for subtly hidden dick and balls, though
Oh, Oooh. NOW I SEE IT!
I’ve been on enough sketchy websites to find the real download link
Yes. Just weird for Dropbox to be doing it.
Back in my day, I could do all I needed in Dropbox with a click or two. Now everything is hidden behind multiple menus, obstructed by persistent ads and over-designed interfaces. I will never upgrade, it doesn’t matter how many different ways they try to make it happen. Dropbox used to be simple and no nonsense. It has been shittified for quite some time now.
