This is true. I use increased font size on my phone, and so many websites are borderline unusable because of massive unnecessary padding. But I am also a culprit of using rem for everything. What is the alternative? Pixels?

Thanks for helping me realize my accidental anti-pattern. Can you link some of the sites that do that the worst.

I want to use those as references to fix my UI (on increased font-sizes on small screens) before releasing an app I've spent 4+ months on.

  • Perfect example for you: indeed.com (desktop site). unless its been fixed recently, huge swaths of area are already empty padded space, made worse by zooming
