User blog comment:Rupert Giles/Layout Changes: Breakpoints and Typography/@comment-4210063-20150520160738

Horrible update. Why change it to... this?

Most of the wiki layouts are completely messed up now thanks to that pointless thing. Why does an inferior device (that originally was for calling/texting before someone had the "great" idea of making it multi-functional) have to be a priority for websites? I don't mind specific mobile sites, in fact I like them (on my phone, obviously), but I abhor it when the desktop site also adds mobile site gimmicks and layout, making itself look terrible. The original Wikia mobile site worked great... so did the desktop site. It wasn't broken so there was no need to fix it. I wish websites nowadays would take into consideration the actual desktop site being fully separate from mobile site or actual issues, how it's supposed to be.

My screen resolution is 1920x1080. Before this update I had a nice widescreen view and now everything looks a like a poorly squashed 800x600 with exaggerated font sizes. Completely ruins my experience when browsing Wikias. I will NOT upgrade or downgrade my monitor just to have a "better" Wikia experience or a layout that is closer to original.

Speaking of pointless changes, the edit buttons and all that. Why, just why? What's the reason behind moving the buttons down into page content instead of leaving them above the page content where they were and actually looked better?

Reading the comment section, this update seems to have caused more issues than there was initially. As someone said, it will be less painful to just revert back to how it was and reconsider the layout change by including all resolutions and devices this time.

I am not and will not be demanding how you run Wikia, but please consider at least an option in "Special:Preferences" where we can choose what size would the layout be if reverting back will not happen.
