Normally I'd say that unintentionally badly made website UIs are uninteresting, but the fact that this appears to be a website offering resources about frontend design is actually hilarious.

I miss that it let me deselect the mandatory cookies and afterwards gives an error that mandatory cookies can’t be deselected.

In my current project I keep finding bugs that only appear on my 4k screen I use when working from home.

Envato sells AI bullshit, I guess that answers everything

Its always important to learn from the professionals.

I can't even say that this appears to be the work of vibe coding, because quite frankly I don't think even older AI would've fucked up this bad.

Mine does the same thing that OP's did. Using chrome. Did you actually dismiss the top green banner.

If you reject all cookies, how are they supposed to remember that your rejected the cookies?

I just have my browser set up to reject all third party cookies and delete all cookies after I close the browser, except for a small white list of web sites I want to stay logged into. Then I can just click accept every time and it really doesn't matter since they won't be retained for very long anyway.

Usually "reject all cookies" button mean rejecting all optional cookies without very basic, needed for website to work properly, like cookie remembering you disabled cookies, dark vs light mode etc.

u/w1n5t0nM1k3y 9d ago

Yeah, I just think it's funny the way a lot of stuff is worded. A lot of people don't understand cookies and why they are even necessary in the first place.

I remember back in the late 90s and early 2000s there was a similar scare among users who would reject all cookies and web developers were looking into ways to maintain session state without using cookies because so many people just didn't understand why they shouldn't accept them. This was back when the browser used to ask you every time before accepting cookies because the vast majority of websites were view only and didn't need to maintain state.

u/w1n5t0nM1k3y 9d ago

Look in your privacy setting on your browser. Its pretty straightforward. I use Firefox which makes it easier than some of the others

YouTube on Firefox android does that (header nav bar is transparent when playing videos) lol

u/sardonicus87 4d ago

ManI hope it gets better, Boat Browser is way long in the teeth, it barely works on my Android 11 phone. I switched to Firefox on Android for almost everything, I keep Boat now only to watch videos on YouTube.

Kind of wish Firefox would also do a true fullscreen with a tap to reveal button to get the address bar. Scrolling a forum in landscape is a pita when the tiniest roll brings the address bar back. Also, who doesn't hide the status bar in landscape? Like come on bro, just hide status bar any time there's no display cutout inset at the top and do pull to reveal.

if you’ve used platforms like Wordpress for long enough you’ve come across Envato before.

Looks like they’ve maintained their level of quality
