Mobile first looks cleaner than desktop first to me. Because I see mobile first as progressive enhancement. Most of the time a layout optimized for a small screen is still usable on a large screen (even if not ideal). In my experience, the opposite is false.

This is well summarized by this illustration from Stéphanie Walter : stephaniewalter.design/wp-content/...

I have seen the image and I now have a better understanding of what the mobile-first design is and will definitely try it out in the future
