    It’d be really nice if there was a site listing and comparing a lot of design decisions. I usually just go by google’s material design standards, but its not always the best.

      For sure, it’d be interesting to see why different systems make particular design decisions compared side by side. This is one of the reasons I found older apple HIG docs interesting because they give actual rationale for the decisions, so it doesn’t feel arbitrary. It’s osx focused, but a lot of it is generally applicable and definitely worth a glance https://blog-geofcrowl-static-images.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/2020-02-17-collection-higs/Apple-OSXHIGuidelines-2009.pdf
