Gave me flashbacks to my time working with Philips' Tasy system in 2017.
By now they've surely finished implementing their HTML5 system which was somewhat better, but back then it was still a desktop app made using Delphi and Java, and it was basically as unsightly and unwieldy as the example in the meme lol
But our power users!!
I worked for a big Euro bank for a bit and that was exactly it. JS timeouts were forbidden, so no animation to tell you something was finished, you had to keep clicking a Refresh button to know. In 2022.
And the colleagues who had been there a few years were actually defending this shit. Stockholm Syndrome is what it is. There wasn't a day I didn't complain about their piece of garbage of an intranet.
I'm so glad it's behind me.
The company app is for actual work, the others are for instagram and netflix
Needs more CLI.
This, but trying to slap all of that into a ‚new‘ react app while not hardcoding every damn input.
Not too far off from my company. However, I work in Healthcare so we've got to do a lot of verification. Also, it's more what we support for our customers rather than what users/patients should see. At least I hope.
I’m sure if this weren’t black and white it’d be some green on black z/OS goodness.
This is giving me CICS interface flashbacks. Anyone who worked retail or call centre or adjacent 20+ years ago probably remembers getting really good at using these kind of bespoke CMS front-ends (Bell folks might "fondly" remember ARICS and BCRIS).
