Rich User Experience (or RUE for short) is a term coined by net artist and philosopher Olia Lialina in an essay published in early 2015. A RUE is a website that tries too hard to emulate software, and give a homely feel when none is needed. It can also be a Web 2.0 SaaS. Essentially, any website that has something that could be done in 400KiB but takes 40 MiB, and removes freedom to the end user in some way, is a RUE. RUE is mostly any website that attempts to conform to another, through web template, WYSIWYG editors, or a "Modern" approach to a website, thus losing individuality and free expression.
