‘the web can be so much more’
When I run into something I find relatable, I love sharing it. That’s what I do here after all.
Why are websites embarrassing?
...when I find a beautiful website, something that pushes the whole thing forwards, I want to loudly celebrate it.
The author, Robin Rendle, is talking about the sorry state of ‘modern’ web design as a professional web designer. What the client wants doesn’t always result in websites ‘worthy of our browsers.’
They’re slow, hard to navigate, and plagued with visual crap; pop-ups, bad typography, newsletter modals, and everything else imaginable.
Thanks for saying that Robin!
