[Thanks iPhone 14, designing for device sizes is dead](https://polypane.app/blog/thanks-i-phone-14-designing-for-device-sizes-is-dead/?ref=birchtree.me)

> If it fits precisely on your iPhone Pro Max, it can now easily no longer fit on someone's iPhone Plus. You have to test both. And when a new device has another tiny change, you can add that one yet again.

Honestly, this is just a good reminder that you should design websites that look good at any arbitrary width. If the 2 pixel difference in width is a problem for your design, then two things:

1. The world is more than just iPhones, so Android users probably got a shit experience for years.
2. You should not have been designing like this since like 2010.
