If you have to use 100 (or whatever) media queries, maybe your CSS is inefficient? Or even more likely, the design isn't good (won't break cleanly between devices so you need different breakpoints on every element)? I say this as someone who was doing this constantly in my first dev job until I realized (after 2+ years) that having a media query every 50 px is a sure sign that your CSS and the design both suck :D Having said that, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
I am a Front End Web Developer who is on a journey to learn as much as possible.
I have lived in Korea for over 5 years and love the food and language.
