I wasn't even thinking about doing dynamic multi-column layouts. But just put some sort of maximum width. Sure, there's going to be a ton of empty space, but that's less of a hassle. At least the text is easy to read.
- StillBored 5y agoWell that is just a large (if not larger problem). Where should one set the limit, I despise web pages that are just a long pencil line down the middle of my screen where 90% of the realestate is wasted as much as you despise the ones that paint the entire thing in one giant wall of unbroken text. Hence my comment about the solution being multi-column newspaper flow. Your average newspaper still probably fits 50x the information density on a two page layout than my computer is doing with three high resolution monitors. Although, part two of this are the really irritating web pages that refuse to vertically scroll more than 50-100 items because it breaks their pagination. Yielding a case where I'm "shopping" (looking at logs/whatever) and the items are only filling the top 1/3 of my monitor. Part three are the applications that scroll but can't accurately reflect where in the wall of text one is actually at (think slack/etc).
