Why do web devs think cutting off text is a good idea? Just get rid of a few (max-)width/height properties and everything becomes readable.

This toot brought to you by #Mastodon's profile metadata always making me hover over it.

cc #webdev and #gui because this is not a rhetorical question.

@csepp idk the reasoning is probably to keep the height consistent (or that you should only add short texts?), it does look a bit more messy with varying height rows.

But I do prefer being able to read the whole thing as well, still

@f0x Then it should limit the length in the settings form. It feels like a designism. Pretty layout over readable content.
