The only issue of these websites is the width: using the full width of the screen is just too much for reading.
If you add {max-width: 60em; margin: auto;} to the body tag it looks much better.
- zeveb 8y agoBack in the day, we had multiple windows on the screen at one time, so this wasn't a problem. I think it was Windows which defaulted to full-screen, and led to the plague of sites assuming that the browser would be full-width on a landscape screen, but I could be wrong. Although I love using a tiling window manager now, I kinda miss my old System 8 Macintosh setup, with Netscape open in one window & Think C (or was it CodeWarrior?) open in another.

- loeg 8y agoNot too wide for my browser windows, which are a bit under 50% of screen width.
- davidgrenier 8y agoLikewise I would say not enough people put their monitors in portrait. It's amazing for coding.
- loeg 8y agoI like landscape — I can comfortably fit 3 80-column code tabs with linter columns (vim :vsplit) in landscape mode, or a vertical term (with 2 80-col code tabs, uncomfortably) and browser side by side. And it also works when I want to play games, or watch anything recorded in landscape, which is most media.
