The accessibility benefit of white space that nobody mentions: generous spacing directly improves readability for users with dyslexia and ADHD.

1.6+ line height, paragraph breaks every 2-3 sentences, 80px minimum between sections -- these reduce cognitive load for everyone, but especially for users who already work harder to read.

Good spacing is accessible design. #A11y #WhiteSpace #UIDesign

White space principle: the confidence to leave things out is the most advanced design skill.

Junior designers fill every pixel. Senior designers ask what can be removed.

When nothing competes for attention, everything matters. That's what premium feels like.

I have been running a social media account of an organisation in the last years and remember how I felt that I had to post a lot back when the organisation was still on twitter. How AI was such a relieve when I didnt have to think anymore to produce tiny useless posts to shoot into this void.

So good twitter is dead (at least for me).

Note for Python detractors...

If you post a public diatribe against Python - which is your right, go ahead and express yourself - but your centerpiece is "Python is slow!", you're marking yourself out as (a) not knowing Python very well, and (b) hating it because you don't understand it.

It's the more modern cousin to "Python sucks because I can't (not) indent to my taste! Significant whitespace, yuck!". It makes it very difficult to take any of the rest of your complaint seriously.

(Significant whitespace has been shown to result in less opportunity for confusion when reading code, and you spend a lot more time reading code than you do writing it.)

And while Python may be slower for some tasks compared to some other languages, it's (a) not outrageously slow, and (b) a case of use the right tool for the job. I can't trim my lawn quickly at all with my pinking shears, but that doesn't mean pinking shears are "slow".

So please, write your analysis - but make it deeper than "argh it sux i hate it i hate it" if you want anyone to actually consider your argument.

Most people count 2 elements.
Text + image.

But they miss the most important one:
Whitespace.

Whitespace isn’t empty.

It’s what makes everything else work.
