Not really? People impose the idea that they can make this work. Yet no sites looked good on the Nintendo DS browser, and people were largely ok with that. Few sites look genuinely good on phones. People are largely ok with that.

The Nintendo DS browser was not good enough to use as a daily driver. My phone, on the other hand, I spend more time browsing on that than I do my computer. Some sites aren't great on it, but the vast majority are fine (reader mode will get you through 99% of the rest). I'd argue most sites don't "look good" on any device. It's really not that hard these days to make a site work on mobile, the navbar often is the most challenging part of it.
