Purposefully deceitful toggle switch colours. Am I saving my preference to receive none, or to receive all? Found on clevertap.com’s mailing list service.
For those saying this is probably just the devs being lazy… Well, they took the effort to write these two lines of CSS, and took the time to make sure they displayed as the exact same color.
input:checked+.slider { background-color: rgba(18, 107, 255, 1); } input+.slider { background-color: rgba(18, 107, 255, 1); }
So there was effort to make both sides blue, whether that was incompetence or intentional, the design itself is still an asshole design and should be shamed :) Good toggle switches can be found all over the web in seconds!
I would say it’s fairly reasonable to assume that the selected option is the blue one? If not, that’s definitely deceitful. If it is the blue one, I don’t think it’s purposefully deceitful, just badly designed. Don’t attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence, yadda yadda
But one thing you need to give them is that they give you the option to opt out All in one switch and not switch 9999999 switches.
Wait a second, is the white the active state?
No idea! I’ll find out if and when I receive another email from them!
God, I really hate toggles that make no sense.
At least that one has a label, but some are just a dark color or light one. Ok, which one is “yes”?
Not sure how this is purposefully deceitful?
There’s no negative in the question. The blue color is obviously the active state.
Not sure what the confusion is here?
