My biggest grief with that site is that it's like something from the 90s.

Yeah it should have a fixed header and footer along with a pop-up consent drawer so you can only see 10% of the actual site content.

So much better.

Modern web design is a joke.

>like something from the 90s

It looks useful and looks good, there's minimal unneeded whitespace and I'm glad it looks as it does. We'd be better off if the entire web switched to a style like this.

As something from the 90s myself, I find this rude.

		It's also inaccurate, as this style of page (relating to layout and specific graphic style) didn't appear until 2006ish.

The 1990s web was actually good

Looking like something from the 90s would be a feature, not a bug.

In the 90s and early 00s, we did tons of user-testing and feedback collection. We threw all that research away to create UX's that are minimal and "sleek". Tons of unnecessary whitespace and the concept of "Discovery" just thrown into the dumpster. Skeuomorphism was one of the greatest features of 90s-00s software, ironically thrown away as computers got faster and were able to handle the graphics better.

I think you are confusing something from the 90 with something from the gov

These guys need to look at Gov.uk, this site is a total horror show.

		I wish gov.uk was even a smidgen as "outdated" looking as that page.
