[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 22 points 10 months ago (2 children) It's becoming more and more common to not even design a website for desktop I can't count how often I go to a website on a 1440p screen and I can see only like three things at once. I fucking hate that shit permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] shalafi@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (2 children) My PC is driving a 40" monitor, imagine my pain. Even worse on the extended 55", but that one's just for movies. SITES BE LIKE CTRL + - all day long. And I'm old and blind, hence the monster monitor. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago Back when I was young I was an ergo assessor and helped all the old people in the office actually use their computers painlessly. That shit has not changed at all and is paying serious dividends. permalink fedilink source parent [–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 point 10 months ago oh yeah I forgot about the sites that automatically resize everything when you try to zoom out lmfao permalink fedilink source parent [–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* I do the web stuff for a very large news company, and over 80% of traffic is mobile, so product people don’t care about desktop. It’s being treated the way IE support used to be: an annoyingly necessary fringe user group. I imagine it’d be even worse in a company whose target demo didn’t skew sharply towards the elderly. We’re finally starting to move away from the idea of “websites exist to push people towards apps”, but it’s contentious and experimental. If I win, our sites will be far less annoying next year. permalink fedilink source parent
