    I feel your rant, I really do.
    You have no idea how disappointed I was after the Wikipedia redesign until I found the full width button in the bottom corner.

    Most sites are optimized for mobile and are completely asinine looking on a monitor.
    Especially text heavy sites where even a single sentence is broken into 2 or more lines, meanwhile 70% of the screen is empty.
    And it’s not like it’s hard to implement a button like Wikipedia did, web designers just don’t give a crap.
    I payed for a full monitor, let me use the full monitor!

      I didn’t know about the button at the bottom, I ended up going into the settings and changing the theme back to the previous one.

      I do like the more dynamic index, I may have to check that out. I’m not entirely opposed to new designs (much as I might bitch about change), it just gets frustrating when things are designed for a specific subset of people with no options to tailor your own experience.
