The real reason? Because making sure that your web site has a browser AND mobile AND app version is too expensive. So most sites settle for a crappy responsive version that pisses everyone off to some degree.
- mcartyem 14y agoWhy does your web site need to have all those versions? Why can't you have only one version, and someone on mobile will zoom in and out? A web site version with 10 things on the header is going to piss people off on the mobile app regardless of how responsively those 10 things show up in their face. A better thing to do is to not show any of those crappy 10 things to begin with.

Responsiveness makes it happen automatically and thus smooth. >A web site version with 10 things on the header is going to piss people off on the mobile app regardless of how responsively those 10 things show up in their face. Good responsive sites rearrange those 10 things in the header so that they are not "in your face" as you say. See also: Twitter Bootstrap.
- mcartyem 14y agoWhat does this rearrangement do that makes them not be in my face? Twitter Bootstrap has been a disaster for me: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4651506 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4651506
