What UI design trend do you hate the most? (lemmy.ml)

I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.

I resent that UI designers are fucking around with trivial, and often annoying, shit when picklists still don't work properly. If it's, say, a list of countries and I hit U to find United Kingdom, the visible part of the picklist will be populated with Ts with the first U right at the bottom of it. How is is possible that this has not been resolved in what, three decades of picklists being used?

I also hate those scroll wheels for entering numbers with no option just to type the damn number. Sure, give us options. Don't make the easiest option impossible.

So much software that you just want to force the designer to actually use, as revenge.
