I'm going to a conference for work. They have a website. They have an app. I'm not downloading an app just to go to a conference. I use the website on my computer. Then I try to view the webpage on my phone since I won't have my computer with me on the day. Through the power of Responsive Web Design, all I see is a banner telling me to download the app. "Request Desktop Site" removes the banner, but now I'm just looking at a blank, white page. Refreshing doesn't fix it. Shaking my phone, cursing, and refreshing again makes the website appear, but oh my is it broken. It's REALLY broken. How is it even possible to make a website that performs this badly on a small screen‽
When can we have nice things? I'm tired of this. I'm even more tired that none of this was unexpected.
