> There are still developers that insist on code only ever being 80 characters wide, even in today's world of 24+ inch, 1920x1080+ monitors. Resolution is largely irrelevant. The size of the font and screen size/distance is what matters for readability. Think in terms of books that are pleasent to read. If the lines are too long it’s easy for some to lose track of where they are. If the font is too small people with poor eyesight will have trouble reading anything. Character limit is an accessibility issue. I am personally limited to ~80 characters for my use case. Though the issue is largely irrelevant for people who are know of therecent AST aware formatting tools that can limit lines to whatever length you’d like.
