Why I hate your responsive website
Meet-Up Details
Responsive web design is all the rage today. As it should be: responsive design solves a very significant form factor problem in a mobile-first world.
Just one problem: So many responsive websites suck. Badly. Many are just a predictable mix of a fancy header bar; a giant, completely useless hero image—just to make it clear that you must scroll to do anything useful; endlessly long pages with just about everything but what you are looking for; promising links that send you back to the same crap you were just looking at; scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling; and a useless fat footer to signify your scrolling has finally come to an end. Oh yeah—and a hamburger menu (regardless of need) just to emphasize that it works on your phone too.
