Why are the featured screenshoots still desktop-only?
FFS it's 2024, we're supposed to be thinking mobile-first, and focusing on experiences for the majority of visitors (i.e., mobile), and yet "inspiration" remains "look at these desktop designs"?
When does such irresponsibility become negligence?

- samsolomon 3y agoI don't think that's fair. We should be going wherever our customers or users are. If it's mobile—and for most consumer businesses it will be—then design mobile-first. We're an enterprise SaaS company. I tell our designers that we should design responsively, but to design desktop-first, because 90% of our users are using a desktop.
- chiefalchemist 3y agoFair? I don't make the internet. But to answer you directly: then the site should be promoted as *desktop* inspiration. But it's not just this site, is it? FE developers and FE engineers think mobile-first, and yet the designers' default is still desktop (when it's often the minority, and fading). What could go wrong?
