I've been writing CSS since 2009 and though it's always been a love/hate relationship, I didn't feel this way until last week. Not sure how new this is, but "dynamic viewports" are now a thing in CSS. The "dynamic viewport" is the area not obstructed by the browser UI.

Literally the only reason I can see for this to exist is because iOS Safari obstructs the browser UI with its stupid toolbar. So we're building new additions to the language purely because Apple builds user-hostile features for their mobile web browser. Lovely.
