Just got a reply from a client complaining that the site I did for him is "too responsive".

Never got this kind of complain.

Normally I might get some complains about the site not being fully responsive but never was I expecting to receive a "site is too responsive" complain.

    @LucaScorpion exactly my point... how can a website be too responsive.

    These were is words:

    "The website currently is very responsive and needs to be slowed."

    @misfitDev oh wow, so it's similar to "you can't see the splash screen long enough, it needs to be slower"

    Why do they want to 'slow it'? Should be easy enough to do.

    "... but I can't pay for so much responsiveness, it's off my budget ..."

    Maybe they need to see the transition animation. They want fluid transition. Just make them slower with setTimeout or css transition or whatever.

    Wasn't there a rant about a web page that makes you wait 10 seconds and it acts like its actually doing something? Just add that same snippet in

    @fbomb did the same thing in an app not long ago. Client insisted on having a search button, and it serves no other function than displaying a click animation 😶

    @divil oh! I had to scroll all the way to your comment before I realised 😂 I was thinking "how can you even slow responsiveness?"
