Does anyone else find full-width text hard to read? I had to actually turn my head. Instantly closed the page.

Resize your browser window.

Yeah, I realised after a couple of paragraphs. I just resized my browser instead though.

It wraps to the width of your browser window, like a good webpage should.

  Webpage yes, its contents no

Use Safari Reader, or a bookmarklet with similar functionality.

Maybe this CSS thing is too trendy for the author ;)

  I love this CSS-free style so much. It's such a relief on the eyes after all the templated same-looking websites out there. Oh, and it's naturally mobile-responsive.

Yes, full-width is hard to read, but somehow I have some sympathy for such simple html pages ;-) Usually I use CTRL+Shift+I and add style="max-width:500px" to the body or push the window to the side of the screen to resized it to 50%.

It is truly funny how first people want 4k monitors but when an application actually uses the given size at full, they cry about "oh, it is too wide", and we end up with disgusting design of web pages with ultra-narrow column of content and wide empty (or ads-filled) columns by both sides.

  Do you run your IDE with one file 4k fullscreen?

    One file full screen is the best. SublimeText searching allows you to remove the file nav bar. Complete freedom and less junk.

  When I'm working on some web thing in visual studio, I'll tend to have: - a web browser - framework documentation (another browser window) - two or more code files (split editor panes) - a separate window for various sidebars And sometimes more (maybe another editor window), all open at once. Right now, that all gets a bit crowded. Even on a single 4k screen, it would probably end up slightly crowded.
