"Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but nothing left to take away."
I value negative space in the same way that my dream is not to pile my plate with as much as I can at a buffet.
- thfuran 3y agoThat's nice, but I value text that renders at a legible size more than I value leaving the majority of my screen empty. This layout isn't effectively using negative space, it's just wasting the entire screen. At least on mobile.
- drivers99 3y agoOn mobile I just use two thumbs to zoom in to the column I want to read.
- libraryatnight 3y agoBlatant ableism against the mono-thumbed or thumbless.
- toomim 3y agoThe mono-thumbed can always double-tap the desired column, and thumbless folx can use their nose.

- folkrav 3y agoYou're free to call that "negative space", it's still 70% of my screen that's just blinding white, and 30% that's a tiny, non-responsive column layout. You call it perfect, I call it annoyingly empty and bad usability on mobile.
