Oh you're right. Interesting. My browser is 1134x1080. I guess maybe in today's world of super high res phones that could be considered a "mobile display".

Any CSS that doesn't take screen density into account is doing it wrong, though.

I don't think it has anything to do with resolution. I'm getting the same thing as the parent on my 1366x768.

Edit: It's actually the width that matters. After reducing it a bit it will show the hamburger menu.

The media query for the hamburger button is max-width: 1366px, so you just met the cut off. I couldn't find a media query for the menu itself, but I suspect since the hamburger button is what allows it to get created, they didn't feel the need.

I don't really understand what's wrong with a full-screen modal menu, or how that means "this is for mobile." It's true that it looks a bit stark on their homepage where there are only 2 links, but it's probably a fairly sensible extensible design that works well when there are many more links or things to see.

It's fair to criticize specific visual and UX design details, but it's a bit much to take this as any indication that Dropbox doesn't care about desktop users (especially Dropbox) or that everything is being "mobilified."

You never used a computer? There is a thing called a mouse which you have to move to the bottom of the screen to select the bloody thing. I'm shocked that Alan Kay did had the glorious idea of the full screen menu.

How to say it without resorting to medical condition: to throw away years of working things in GUI and to come with an "UX" which has the functionality of windows 1.0 shows some mental development problems to say the least.

Because I'm trying to read off some details on a document I have open on the side while interacting with the menu and then it goes full screen and obscures everything.

Fair enough. I only see two links in the menu, so surely the menu can quickly be viewed and closed.

Mine's at 1280 and it's full menu, almost entirely whitespace. Makes it kinda fun though, feels like finding an easter egg.
