Hi Deamon, don’t get me wrong, modals in general are bad and it is a “last resource”. However, I agree with the solution of Firefox’s UX designer, asking for a confirmation before turning on/off the AI functionalities (as it is a disruptive action that affect overall users XD). We may argue that maybe it needed to be done via a full page… ? Or maybe not using a “switch” in the first place. Anyway, all good. It is nice to see people with this kind of concerns 👍
PS, I don’t like this AI move of FF, I actually uninstalled it after years and years because of that.
It would have been a dark pattern if, just as an example, the “block” button was set as secondary action (in white) and the primary blue action was “cancel”.
A modal in general is not defined as a dark pattern (not sure why you say that).
And in this case a modal is used to manage a user journey “subtask”, which is a request to confirm a potential disruptive action: users may use firerox AI features for long, before deciding to turn them off, deeply changing their experience with the product.
I agree that it could have been done as a full page, but it is fine also as a modal on desktop (not mobile viewport)
@opensource @opensource@diggita.com alla fine si tratta di un’impresa privata, Europea, che offre un servizio, quindi fanno giustamente come vogliono. Io sono felice con Nextcloud, che ha le stesse caratteristiche, ma decido io il cloud (nel mio caso, Hetzner in Germania). Comunque capisco che sia piu facile per l’utente medio, che si registra, paga e ha tutto pronto, quindi benvenga!! Il brand “Office EU” suona molto ufficiale, ma è un’azienda privata. Il vero progetto della comunità Europea è Gaia-X
