Is a responsive website design (without using things like vh and vw) solely dependent on aspect ratio? I like a weird meaningless feature I gave my front page when I make the window as small as possible and can be revealed or hid vertically, but said feature leads to my page being a little less responsive if I were to view it on a mobile device as making the measurements responsive would prevent the pointless thing.
No it can also be dependent on how wide the screen resolution is. I forget how or why it works but even a modern phone with a super crisp screen tells CSS that it's only like 480px wide or something. I think it has to do with some scaling factor changing on phones that's left alone at 1.0 on desktops. I use both this and aspect ratio and it's kind of a mess but it works.

Oo okay I see, also if I'm reading it correctly, does "@media only screen" mean it only changes the elements if the screen size itself and not the window is specifically in those ranges?
