Okay, so what’s with Gitlab and ServiceNow getting so fat on whitespace that they no longer fit in half a 1920x1200 screen properly?

What’s the standard width that actual professional webdevs are building toward? Is there a standard, or like app dependendencies are they back to pre-y2k “moar moar nom nom” methodologies?

    My favorite trend of the past few years is obfuscating your existing user login button, in favor of overtly displaying new user signup link.

    That, and also camouflaged site search bars.

      That’s an exciting new branch of webdev craziness. The browser has a login ui; it responds to a 401; just let me use that.

      But why do I have to shrink everything to 90% just so my workflow fits in one screen? Do I need all that whitespace on the page that serves no purpose, like some rich guy’s opulent lawn space where he’s set up a crochet set that no one ever plays?
