    Okay just so we’re clear, at this point mobile versions of websites should be the default.

    Yes, please get it right when detecting my device and give me the correct version. But if you don’t know, mobile will be correct more often than not and y’all thinking desktop should be the default are giving big “Hello fellow kids” energy

    If a website is being opened, it is more than likely being opened on a mobile device. My computer gets used for work and particular games, that’s it. The rest is my phone. Making mobile the default is just reasonable.

    Also empty space is good, and helps you identify the important information. Windows 95 and basic HTML are not good design standards please stop having nostalgia for them

      Empty space is good to a point. Margins are important for readability but if a half of your screen is just blaring white nothing with only a thin column of text you've made it worse.

      In terms of site visits, mobile is still barely ~60%. In terms of time spent on a site, Desktop use is still the majority. So with all due respect, nuh uh.
