I realize probably many (most?) people open this site on a mobile device, and the design is optimized for that. Still, does it bother anyone that on a desktop monitor, less than a third of the horizontal width is used for content?
- prmoustache 2y agoI am not sure it is much better on a mobile device because even on a desktop monitor in rotated 90 degrees or on a browser windows using half the width of the desktop in landscape mode, there is an awful lot of white margin on both sides of the text.
- rement 2y agoI suspect they are using the 50-75 character rule for the text [0]. It makes the page look empty with so much white space. For me 100 characters is a better line length as I prefer to scan text on the web over reading it and the page doesn't look as empty.
