I just re-read the entire thing. It is good. You're misrepresenting or you need to check your browser settings.

No image blocks any paragraph, which even if it had, would be far more forgivable than modern web design. Do you consider any of Apple's modern product pages -- which "block off whole portions of" the page itself by scrolljacking and Clockwork-Oranging you to force you to watch their hypnotic marketing animations -- bad?




screenshots aren't 'proof.' and haven't been for a long time, neither was i ever looking for 'proof'. wow, the amount of webdev butthurt at someone's website who criticized webdevs is astounding.


They are proof of MY experience.

Accusing me of “webdev butthurt” is pretty funny. considering that:

A. I’m not a web dev.

B. I have already said multiple times I agree with the actual message of the article! (I just couldn’t read parts of it on desktop)


Why are you trying to gaslight me? I know what I’m seeing. In my browser (Chrome with default settings), there are certain paragraphs where the first word of every line is partially obscured. There are others where the last word of every line is obscured. It is unreadable.


ps. default chrome is no longer a valid user agent, by pure definition.


I'm not gaslighting you. Are you just willy nilly accusing me of lying that nothing was covered up in MYYYYY browser? What about Lynx? hmm? What a garbage community member you are.


I never said things were covered up for YOU, I said they were covered up for ME. Then you implied I was lying, and now that I provided proof your new argument is “Chrome isn’t a valid user agent”. Sure bud.
