Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's becoming more and more common to not even design a website for desktop
I can't count how often I go to a website on a 1440p screen and I can see only like three things at once. I fucking hate that shit
My PC is driving a 40" monitor, imagine my pain. Even worse on the extended 55", but that one's just for movies.

CTRL + - all day long. And I'm old and blind, hence the monster monitor.
Back when I was young I was an ergo assessor and helped all the old people in the office actually use their computers painlessly. That shit has not changed at all and is paying serious dividends.
oh yeah I forgot about the sites that automatically resize everything when you try to zoom out lmfao
I do the web stuff for a very large news company, and over 80% of traffic is mobile, so product people don’t care about desktop. It’s being treated the way IE support used to be: an annoyingly necessary fringe user group. I imagine it’d be even worse in a company whose target demo didn’t skew sharply towards the elderly. We’re finally starting to move away from the idea of “websites exist to push people towards apps”, but it’s contentious and experimental. If I win, our sites will be far less annoying next year.
