Exactly. Not all we want and need to tell other people can be reduced to tweets. whoever has the windows maximised on a desktop has another option, and the paragraph was never a 140 character slogan.
Bring back MDIs (maybe)!
I never keep my browser maximized.
HN and other text based sites are more readable in narrower windows or on a phone.
HN on a phone suffers when comments are deeply nested (this one) and when somebody quotes text using spaces as of it was a block of code.
Bur it seems the ad delivery has the priority.
I simply have a separate browser window for “wide development” sites. I see nothing wrong with that.
