    What made this happen? Shitty programming stuffed to the gills with unnecessary frameworks, JavaScript tracking nonsense and code spread among multiple servers all trying to render a simple grid of video thumbnails.

    I don’t blame the programmers as much as the marketing droids that have ruined the internet at this point.

      I think this one is more on the YouTubers.

      I build this kind of grid for customers and it’s almost always the same problem.

      Users will upload images with white borders, some more, others less.

      Without inspecting the code i can only assume, this could also be, like you said, conflicting frameworks, where their CSS keeps fighting each other for display supremacy.

      Edit: i think you’re right, this looks like the failed attempt to add 40px margin every x amount of cards, while trying to match the needed margin for a new row.

      A forgotten media query, it still has the margins from the 5 col grid for the bigger screen
