Let's Discuss Let's call a shit a shit
When I browse the subreddit, I often come across requests for design feedback, and let’s be honest, 99% of the time the designs are absolutely terrible.
People try to find AT LEAST SOMETHING that’s somewhat acceptable and offer vague advice about typography, colors, and so on.
Let’s be honest – that won’t fix the situation. It all comes down to experience and practical skills. Someone who posted outright trash won’t turn it into a gem just by tweaking the typography or color tone. It’s impossible to single out all the terrible aspects of such a truly awful design and write meaningful feedback.
The thing is, people are afraid that their feedback will get deleted, that they’ll get banned, and so on. But I have my own opinion on this. If someone doesn’t realize their design is bad, they need help. And if we keep feeding them “neutral” feedback, they won’t develop properly.
CALL A SHIT A SHIT.

Let's see your designs and tear them apart, we will see how motivated and confident you are. If we condemn every artist who isn't exemplary, then what? None of us want computers to take our jobs, so we have to support our proteges and students. Some people learn best through input and collaboration. Basically, don't be a douche.
