  • The Big Redesign Feedback Thread

    I had a nightmare. 

    There was a global pandemic, and everyone was in quarantine mode. Oh, and Appleinsider redesigned their website.

    I was on my iMac, and I thought I'd hit the wrong bookmark. Boom! There were so many images, so much color, and all these bold headlines. I didn't know where to focus. There was a top story and featured stories. And a busy sidebar with rumors, comparisons, videos, reviews and tips. In addition to the latest news articles, there were featured topics of the week, a featured deal, and featured product review videos. Not to mention ads. Like a facemask ad, FOUR times on the page: at the top and bottom, and twice on the sidebar. I had a nightmare about the masks later.

    Yes, I know it's a responsive site, and the organization of the desktop page is directly related to how it reconfigures when viewed on smaller screens. And on smaller screens, it works quite well. But the desktop page scared me. So I woke up. Except I didn't, and I can't.
