I've learned to design UX that "gets out of the way." I have written some pretty cool UI elements that I've ended up, not using.

Here's an example; It's a cool "popup prize-wheel spinner" for iOS, and I have tried using it a few times, but we always decide that it's too intrusive: https://github.com/RiftValleySoftware/RVS_Spinner

I generally end up taking "The Road Most Traveled By": https://littlegreenviper.com/miscellany/the-road-most-travel...
