Making the page have empty margins by squeezing all the content into the middle of the page. When I started learning how to make website back in the 90's, this was considered a major no-no. It's really only done these days, because they focus entirely on how it looks on a phone held vertically than on an actual computer. But there's no reason to not have it use the space on devices that can see it.
Mobile-first is supposed to be a specific way of implementing responsive design, but I think a lot of people say "job done" after the first step and never get around to the whole responsive thing. I think it's easier to use a mobile layout on desktop than it is to use a desktop layout on mobile, so in that way I think mobile-first is a good principle to follow. But I agree, making a desktop layout that looks good is ignored far too much these days.
