I wouldn't have found it without stumbling across your site! I use Elian in my own journal, and quikscript looks like a useful addition for me. Alternate alphabets are neat.

ive noticed this as well. theres this weird idea that phones=social media. but a phone is just a tiny computer really. and its so easy to make pages mobile accessable. if you have one column all you have to do is make sure your margins are percentages rather than pixels. and if you know enough css to make columns then you should know enough css to be able use media queries for screen width

This is a great post, and you've made a good argument for responsiveness in web design. And it really isn't hard to do, media queries give you a lot of flexibility. I can't be on my PC a lot bc I'm either at work, or trying to rest off fatigue or a migraine. Responsiveness shouldn't be seen as some kind of concession for the social media crowd (it's not), but allowing more people to access the indie web

Excellent blog post! I agree, but it kind of feels futile trying to convince zoomers who have little coding or technical experience who are nostalgic for a time they never lived in. "Best viewed in chrome at 1920x1080" is one thing, but I've seen people here on Neocities fail to comprehend that the reason why their site looks broken in the thumbnail is because it's a different resolution than their own computer.

Fair point. Nostalgia is definitely a driving factor for this sentiment. I suppose if you never browsed the early web, it's easy to see all these fun, old screenshots and think that it was a better time for everyone. In some ways, it was better, but it was definitely an accessibility nightmare. We can bring the good parts of the old web forward with us to 2023, but some things are best left in the past!!
