THE MYTH OF GOOD TASTE
Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter
Relying on "taste" in product management introduces subjective biases rooted in cultural norms, often distracting from core goals like functionality, accessibility, and user value. A craft-based approach — focused on deliberate, inclusive, and ethical design choices — ensures that products are genuinely useful, equitable, and sustainable, rather than just aesthetically appealing or superficially impressive.
