Windows users who just maximize everything all the time and get giant empty white bars on the sides of their browser shock me. What an insane waste of space. You see windows users with Ultrawides and a maximized browser where the site is centered and 90% of the width of the screen is serving nothing but site border and it just makes me scream.
macOS replacing the “Zoom” stoplight buttons with “Full Screen” as the default behavior still irks me. Why would I ever want something full screen other than a video or game?
- rhaway84773 3y agoIn the 2000s there was a huge push for distraction free software. Nearly every application was coming up with a distraction free mode. Maximizing your window is similar to that. At the same time it doesn’t completely eliminate the window context and the ability to easily switch between applications like full screen does.
- mcluck 3y agoWhat kills me about it is I can't find a way to keep my other monitors from blacking out. I usually have at least two screens, I would love to dedicate one completely to code while leaving the other in normal mode for documentation, references, etc.

- namtab00 3y agoit's not about maximizing the window you're interested in, but ALSO "minimizing" (hiding) what you are not focused on at that moment.
