> Don't believe, the proof is self evident the moment you try to update a UI that requires users to do things differently than before.
Is this because they don't like learning something new, or because they've been burned so many times by badly done redesigns that make things harder to use for pretty much everyone? I'm sure half of Hacker News despises how Windows has been redesigned from Vista onwards, or at the very least since 11.
Perhaps many people don't like change as much because a lot of changes come less from user needs/insight into what would actually improve the program and more from the need to give designers something to do (or provide another way to add ads/track users/appeal to shareholders).
Having an interest in making your own job easier/more efficient is very different from being interested in accepting every redesign under the sun.
