web design kinda freaks me out. too much space. i’m this close to saying “screw it, everything is clamped to 800x600”

@samhenrigold it took me a long time to make anything small, even on my mobile design

@samhenrigold start with mobile first and you'll have the opposite problem.

I use 1024x768 as a baseline because people do still use laptops with these kinds of screens. I tried a wider layout in the early days of Smithereen, but it turns out longer lines of text are harder to read. It was kinda at this point that I decided to give up on trying to be original and just build a pixel-perfect copy of VK's old design instead.
