There are only two ideas in Modern UI (&/or Web) Design, see the image[^].
Do you like Modern Web Design or Classic?
Here's the difference[^].
I created these memes and they are my contributions to the ongoing UI Design discussion. 
They show you why the UX is so irritating, agitating, annoying and other synonyms.
Uh, and yes, CP Main-Page, I'm looking (scrolling) at you!

And it's risen by 30% this year - an extra £60!
So I look around to find out why and it turns out that's not bad - the average rise in the UK this year is 43%. Bloody glad I'm not still 17 ... they pay an average of £3,145 
I'm still going to shop around, but ... looks like it might be not too bad a price after all.

Yeah - I guess the increase in value due to the cost of EVs has helped push the cost up generally, even if you don't drive an EV (because I can't charge one anywhere near home).
I just tried a couple of the "insurance comparison" sites, and they couldn't get below the renewal price - the closest was £30 more!
I'm really, really glad I'm not 17 any more ...

Mine went up 40% about 5 months ago, and that's the average increase.

The old car we just kept about the same, I think an extra £10, but it is terrible.
Looking forward to the main car in the Autumn, I'm expecting an extra £200 at least.

I had the same issue. I looked around and got it for less than I paid last year.

I just glad my car is a (relatively) low insurance group: 15E
For a laugh, I checked the group for Teslas - they start at 36 and go up to 50! Try buying an EV when you are 17 ...

I have an eighteen year old Toyota so it's group 13.

18 years ago I paid a bit under $1500/yr for my car insurance.
Today it's a bit under $1400/yr. It's the same car. It's 18 years old and now practically worthless. Never claimed anything.

May I disagree? I'd rather be 17. Better yet: 30... insurance cost and everything

Bob's looking rather smart in his Mounty kit, give it a few hours and he'll be rolling around drunk from too much maple syrup mead screaming how Toronto are the best hockey team.
Every year the same.

My sister found? (she was vague) a life sized stone-like statue of a toddler - not like a cupid or anything you'd normally associate with such statues - just a normal toddler. Maybe a 3yo boy in overalls, uniform gray.
I suggested (and the suggestion will probably take) that she display it prominently on her property with a sign that reads "unattended or misbehaving children will be turned to stone."
Her youngest, the 2 year old talks to it.
