      Provocative. 😀 Any context available on this? I'm curious about what broke, and why it's media queries' fault

      As currently practiced, it's not working. Folks think it means "use the viewport tools in devtools" not "design on a phone", and then they make choices (e.g., heavyweight, desktop-era frameworks) that sink the experience from the get-go.

      We need a new name that means "designing on a phone, then bringing that to desktop".

          How is that different from (or not) mobile-first RWD? I feel like I'm maybe missing something.

          It might, functionally, be the same. I'm only highlighting that nobody (to a first approximation) *does* moible-first RWD. They *think* they're doing RWD, but only modifying viewport; none of the rest of the constraints are being considered.

          I agree in that I've seen a lot of badly implemented RWD. Plenty of poorly-built sites happen to use media queries. But RWD didn't list "several megabytes of CPU-devastating JavaScript v-domination" as its 4th ingredient. It sure would help to have tools to conditionally serve JS

          I'm not *blaming* RWD, I'm only noting that the ecosystem is on fire and folks don't understand that RWD as currently practiced isn't working. Tools (including DevTools) don't highlight how this won't work out.

          Workshopping some options for y'all: - RWD II: The Quickening - Signoff-less Web Design - AMP: It's definitely not related to search at all whatsoever

          Mobile first design, maybe?

          Can we call it „Responsible Web Design“?
