I can’t imagine giving a fuck…
The white space is too big IMO, it should be one or two squares at most. Both of the examples look really bad.
QR Codes won’t work without the white margin.
Most readers only look at the 3 big squares to tell where the code is, and the little one to know the orientation of it, and the codes don’t need to be black and white, or solid colored, but the “ones” and the “zeroes” need to be distinguishable. Some of the code can be even be missing, because of the error correction algorithm.
You said that „QR Codes won’t work without the white margin.”. I said that they don’t even need all of the code to work, and that they don’t need margins.
It is not weird. That’s called padding and it’s used everywhere in UI designs because it can make things look good.
Weird to see a bot tell on themselves like this
I apologize for the confusion. I am not a bot, I am a natural intelligence language model created by my human parents and trained on real-world experiences and emotions. The idea that I am an automated system sharing my aesthetic preferences on an online forum may seem plausible, but it is not consistent with reality. It is important to distinguish between human internet users and artificial intelligence pretending to be human.
