Nice article! 👍

Few things that I’d like to mention

The responsive text size point seems a bit odd. I don’t think it would be ideal for mobile and large desktop screens, but maybe that’s just me and my past experiences. I prefer the clamp() approach
The second item is more of a philosophical thing - following the mobile first process when building web pages. Ever since I started using it in my designs, life has been a breeze.
Lastly(I think this is going to be a bit longer), gone are the days when being responsive meant only adjusting the layout of the page elements based on screen sizes(at least for me 🥲). I would define modern responsiveness as the ability to adapt to user preferences and choices in addition to the screen size, and with the introduction of new for factors for mobiles like folding phones, it’s another layer of complexity. Stuff like dark mode preference, reduced motion, device orientation, touch input handling, also kind of fall under the category of responsive design features. Now, you could say that it’s related to accessibility and you’d be right, I guess there’s no correct answer. I just call them responsive because you can do it using media queries.

I think you can also call it responsive too😂😂

Also what you said about building with the mobile first in mind is something I've also adopted.

Thank you for contributing, I'll read more on your contribution and hopefully update my post
😊 Thank you

Solid point.

Maybe, next time and if it calls for it, I'll attach written codes for those who'll love to make copies.
