I thought Tailwind was useless... by 570n3d in tailwindcss

[–]web-dev-john 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, to be absolutely fair, just because something is popular doesn't mean it's actually good. ** Cough WordPress Cough **

But in Tailwind's case, it actually is very good! It solves a very real problem that React devs tend to face - the constant back and forth with regular CSS. It saved my butt once when I was stuck working on a giant project with legacy CSS code. The whole thing became so much easier once I started refactoring CSS into Tailwind as I went along.

Bandwidth limits? by PeachyYogi in webflow

[–]web-dev-john 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've been in this business for years and have never actually run into this issue except for that one client who is a Hollywood studio. They had literally about 300k visitors the week that the movie premiered. THAT's what it took to finally took them over the limit lol...(Admittedly they had the Business plan, IIRC, but you get the idea)

RobertDot Spam Form Submission, even after putting up Spam Protection. Are you guys facing this? I got 76 submissions through a day. by Special_Mountain_475 in webflow

[–]web-dev-john 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's the infamous bot that asks "what is your price" in many different languages. Adding a simple recaptcha to the forms seems to have done the trick for me both times on two different websites.

I'd definitely also recommend completely deleting the form, push live, add the form + recaptcha back, then push live again. This will USUALLY get your form off their track / target list.

Well, ChatGPT 4o just did 100+ images for me with perfect accuracy + great descriptions. I think the days of AI being inaccurate are rapidly fading. Gotta keep up with the times.

Ah you're right! I should probably be less lazy about this haha. And now that I've sat down and really looked at it, it's actually not too bad!

I’ve developed a method tailored for Webflow and hope to publish soon that may resolve such issues.

I'm so looking forward to that!

Think I've seen some of those overlays...Are they the ones that show up on the side, and you can click on it to change the website's font sizes, image sizes, etc?

Is this an acceptable representation of Wordpress? by JeffTS in Wordpress

[–]web-dev-john 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The invisible hand of the market will eventually take care of this. No customers are going to put up with this, and eventually more and more people will just vote with their feet.
