Am I the only one who finds it frustrating how sites seem to be prioritizing mobile users over PC users? (lemm.ee)

I tried looking at the reviews for a monitor, and when I clicked "see more reviews" I got redirected to a page asking me to login and to provide my mobile phone number (which I didn't do for privacy reasons).

On Instagram I was confused at everyone else mentioning Instagram stories because I only have the option of uploading pictures and videos. Then I found out that it's something you can only do if you use Instagram on a phone... I swear I've came across a few sites that wouldn't even let you sign up if you were using a PC

I only ever browse social media on a PC and that's the way it will always be. Sometimes I can't help but feel like desktop/computer users are becoming an afterthought. Anyone else have similar feelings? 🫠

Yeh right in the center of the screen in a column.

Uhm, browser has a window mode, just so you know.

So? All that means is the window isn't using the full screen.

Yes, space for other stuff.

What i want to say is, that barely anyone uses their FHD+ display to have the browser in fullscreen. (Or the blind TO with bigger text size)

Well... developers develop for most people, except if you pay them to do your wishes.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Of course your not wrong. Doesn't make it any less annoying

When you only have the browser open, you have it maximized. Also I think you mean screen size not resolution, as my phone and laptop are both "FHD" (1080p?), and my phone defo isn't big enough to use the browser splitscreen.
