What reason do you have to hate mobile-first web design other than being old?

Because I hate women who use mobile in portrait mode and killed the slick and slide keyboard older smartphones had.

You fit more stuff on a large display. Then when the time comes, you collapse things behind menus or tooltips etc. to compress it to the small display. You have to do this, to make it fit.
You fit less stuff on a small display, so everything starts in a menu. You don't have to un-abstract things from behind the menus, it's not necessary to make it work, so you just don't. Thus you end up with a sparse awkward desktop layout.

Twitter works just fine on desktop though.

We had "mobile-first web design" almost 30 years ago with WAP. The whole point of the iPhone was to be able to use a full website. Then, after all the newfags flooded the webdev industry, they decided that cripping the entire internet was the way to go.

Sparse, awkward layout

It is a better layout than 4chan. Having the important content centered is better than having everything aligned to the left.
>>
Excessive vertical scrolling with page-sized ads mixed in every 2-3 paragraphs.

I don't like having to scroll

Renember when webshits cared about the fold and keeping shit above the fold and better to paginate than to lose content below the fold and see you below the fold and bla bla bla the our highschool journalism teacher taught us the rules of publishing on the web and the fold the fold the fold

fucking webshits
I wish they'd go back to obsessing over the fold

If you're not retarded you can design pages without being mobile-first or desktop-first.

>>108176344
4chan is also ass, but it wasn't being used as an example of good design.
