What's a button you hate tapping or clicking accidentally?

For me, it's "Clear Storage". Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I'm playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.

Anytime I go to tap something on a page and it suddenly decides something hadn't loaded yet and suddenly changes whats under my finger/mouse.

I've had that in happen to me where I try to click on something and it opens a new page. I go back to the previous page. Aim for the link I want to click... Press it... refresh Click the wrong one again...

Sometimes this can go on for 3 or 4 times. I feel like I'm going insane when it happens. How can something so simple be so complicated

This is how we know human advancement still has potential. Nobody has implemented a solution for this. It could be so simple.

Keep the element where the cursor is in the same spot. Any shifting of other elements above or below, fine, but whatever the cursor is on is locked.

Something loads below? Expand the page down to fit. Something loads above? Expand the page up to fit.

It's not rocket science, guys.

I get this on the web interface of my 3D print server. Occasionally come back in a few hours having printed the wrong fileā€¦
