Then there are all the programmers who implement user interfaces where you must right-click on something in order to realize there's something there which you could right-click on.
One of my coworkers is terrible about this.
Unfortunately he has been completely immune to explanation or persuasion that right-clicking on odd bits of the display to get a contextual menu is not "obvious" to everyone who's not him.

@CliftonR@wandering.shop @deathkitten@firetribe.org Ok, case in point: I know the three dots on YouTube shorts get the Description, & invoke the "Don't recommend channel" functions. But I'm notoriously blind to things I'm not actually a) familiar with &/or b) looking for. So TIL that YT vids (Shorts, at least) a) can have multiple audio tracks & that b) one of the language options is Klingon!? This is the video that learnt me this. (Using the Klingon simply as add'l audio space) https://www.youtube.com/shorts/I87xXqkbXMA
