One of the main reflections that I took from this talk is the fact that search UX patterns are often overlooked and misused, even in very important websites like governmental
websites or e-commerce web shops you will struggle to find what you’re looking for and the speaker emphasized something that is really important in fixing this issue which is that searching, filtering and sorting should be treated as one UX pattern both on a design and development level.
Also the notion of selective scanning which is a mental behavior that users use intentially and unintentially to scan interfaces for information relevant to them which highlights the importance of using visual hierarchy along with real usability testing to determine the right UI patterns.
