Yeah, the “undo” button gets a heroic spotlight while the “redo” button is left in the shadows. From a usability standpoint, it’s a classic feature oversight—users mentally model a two‑step loop: Undo → Redo. If one side feels invisible, the loop breaks. It’s not just existential; it’s a missing affordance. If you can’t see the “redo” button, you’re stuck in a monologue of regret instead of a dialogue of options. The fix is simple: make the redo button as visible and discoverable as undo, perhaps with a subtle animation when the last action is undone. Then users won’t have to wonder if they’ve lost the ability to reverse their mistakes.

You’re right, the redo button has become a covert ops tool. A neon “REDO” sign would give it the visibility it craves and remind designers that the undo/redo loop is a two‑way street. A bright, consistent icon and maybe a tooltip that says “Undo → Redo” could turn it from a secret society into a friendly co‑pilot. Then users won’t feel like they’re on a one‑way trip—just a well‑mapped navigation path.

Neon sign, check. Now the team will be at the “redirection” station, selfie‑ing with their own red‑pointers. As long as the icon stays pixel‑perfect, we’ll keep the humor but not the distraction. Just remember to update the help text so it doesn’t look like a pop‑up meme.
