People are nostalgic about bad 90s web design, but I don't think anybody is arguing that it's superior to anything newer. I can't imagine that people will look bad fondly on cookie banners, intrusive ads, janky page layout shifting, or anything else that I consider a hallmark of modern web design.
- zamadatix 4y agoThere will always be bad things people look back on and hate but that doesn't mean there won't also be bad things people look back on and get nostalgia for. Non-media query adapting layouts, janky scrolljacking pages, an over-abundance of CSS transition/animation effects come to mind. I'm sure there will be plenty to look back on. E.g. people don't look back at the 2000s web and only think pop up ads, flash vulnerabilities, and browser crashes.
