    Yes, that’s what redditor/lemmy users do. None of these people know anything about UX design or the tens of millions of dollars companies pour into user research.

    Any minimally decent website already has margin along the viewport edge, at worst you’re shaving off a few pixels from an image that the user probably hasn’t finished scrolling to anyway. There’s no real loss in content with this change.

      apart from that it ruins any website’s unique design by forcefully shoving it’s rounded corners into it, or making anything in the corner look odd

        How does it ruin unique designs? Nothing important should be so far in the corner that it gets cut off

          i’ve designed a few websites recently which really favour sharp corners, and when one of my sharp objects randomly has a rounded corner, when none of the others do, just because it happens to be in the top left corner, in my opinion that’s a bad thing?

            Are you able to show us an example of what you’re talking about? I genuinely cannot picture a situation where this would be remotely as bad as some of y’all are making it out to be, how do you design a website in such a way that very slightly chamfered edges completely ruins the look?

      Probably the hundreds of focus groups that were behind the decision shrug
