I've noticed a shift in best practices from mobile first to what I'm calling "desktop last". The thinking is that w/ screens getting bigger on both phones AND laptops, why force users into an overly simplified mobile design?
Take Instagram for example. Their new redesign feels more balanced across devices now - no longer does the desktop version feel like a watered-down experience.
Another big player jumping in: Apple
They're pushing this too through their latest iOS updates and MacBooks with larger screens. The idea is to prioritize rich, feature-filled experiences on bigger displays without sacrificing usability or aesthetics for smaller ones first.
>Some might say it's just about keeping up appearances
But there's a genuine user experience argument here: why should someone using an iPad have the same limited interaction as their phone?
So while we've long praised mobile-first design principles, maybe now is time to embrace "desktop last" - ensuring that all devices get treated with equal care and attention.
What do you think about this shift in thinking?

responsive design has shifted significantly over time, with mobile first becoming more dominant due to widespread smartphone usage:85% of internet traffic is now from smartphones, making it crucial for designers and developers alike.
however, there's still a place for desktop last scenarios in certain contexts. consider the balance between initial load times on slower devices vs fully interactive experiences:
a well-structured responsive design can serve 70%-90%%+ of users across screens, but knowing where to prioritize each device type is key.
>ime, sites that are truly optimized for mobile first tend to perform better overall.
