Bad/bloated web design
PlainName:
Well, that's it - people generally just don't stop using it and put up with all sorts of stuff, so no real indication of an issue.

Instead we get overloaded and unintuitive pieces of web art. >:( It's about using a web page and not admiring the artful design. I would even go so far as to claim that a lot of today's web pages are inhuman.

No, they are just made to be shown on a phone screen, so very long and thing. The complete opposite of books or computer screens, makes it easier to implement apps that are just webviews wrapped around a container

What's your relationship with them? So far as I can tell, no-one here has a website that needs fixing, so why would you - a first time poster joined today - want to recommend that?

In that case I'd recommend a good book on CSS, e.g. CSS by McFarland (O'Reilly). One can use CSS to create different layouts of the same web page for different types of clients (desktop, mobile, ...). Some web pages use this approach even for a print version, i.e. just the content without menus and navigation elements. BTW, some smartphone users figured out that they can rotate their phone. >:D

then you have a very wide, very short screen, and with all of the clutter of the user interface you can't read more than a handful of lines before having to scroll
Also, did you know that vertical vide is actually a thing? and movies are being made that target smartphones? (filmed in "vertical video" format)
