No monitors above 1920x1200 and they must code in bright sunlight at least 8 hours a day. I'm convinced some websites look like ass because the developers haven't look at anything below 4k. Maybe ever. Some may not have seen sunlight in years. Not everything needs to be made for dark viewing with white text everywhere.
I have 4k screen and half of the websites are cellphone-like column in the middle. WTF is this shit?
Who the hell maximizes their browser on a 4k monitor?!
Oh god, yes, I wish they had to work in a bright environment. Every other website (and even some desktop applications) feel like it was coded by someone who hasn't left their basement since Obama was still in office.
I mean, seriously, how can people unironically say stuff like 'black text on a white background hurts my eyes'? Turn on the fricking lights damn it. Staying in badly lit environments is bad for your eyesight anyway.
Also, while we're at it, I am also not a fan of grey text on a grey background. Okay, rant over.
It's you! You're the bugger who replaced all the mild amber streetlights with harsh blue-pumped mini-suns!
Designer != Web developer
Your anger is misdirected.
Bold of you to assume most sites and apps have designers.
Even the ones that don't are following designers, just not ones they work with.
Those giant JavaScript frameworks, and more importantly for design, CSS frameworks don't pop out of thin air. .
The entire world was and still is in material design because it was the blessed Google design.
"I can build my website in 5 minutes using SquirtSpace or Bro-Daddy! Who needs IT anymore."
"I asked ChatGPT to prompt Claude to build my site."
