the line btwn responsive and adaptive is blurring bc of how much we rely on foldables now. instead of just fluid grids, i am seeing more layouts that strictly trigger specific component swaps via
@media (min-width: 600px)
to handle the screen crease. it feels like we are moving away from a single flexible container toward
discrete device profiles for every new form factor.
>designing for one viewport is officially deadthe complexity of managing these
cross-device transitions is getting harder as developers try to avoid
clunky desktop ports that just scale down . it is no longer enough to just resize images; we gotta rethink the entire interaction model.
