And the award for the worst country select field goes to … Meta.

Countries are sorted randomly. Not by name or abbreviation.
Oh and the native behaviour of a select field – typing searches the options – does not work. (It jumps to the option that starts with the last character you typed)

Seriously? Up to that point I thought incompetence, but this …

@michael @grumpy_website I need to fill this form out to test an API integration and it took me more than 1 minute just to find the right country.

This isn't even a "country" field in the form.
It's a postcode field where the validation depends on your selected country. 🤷

@michael @grumpy_website Oh my. It get's even better.

Their debug-tool displays the form in an old design. That field has a nice search field at the top. 🤦

@stefanzweifel haha, bonkers!

I hate country drop downs anyway. Especially when you are from a country like the UK which I’ve seen listed under U for United Kingdom, G for Great Britain, B for Britain, or even E for England. (The latter being particularly popular on German sites for some reason.)

So, yeah, country drop downs are an abomination to me …
