Chinese app design looks weird. But, they work just as well as other apps and websites around the world. Why is that?

In this video, I cover why this "cluttered and weird" design is necessary, how physical space correlates with Chinese software design, why Chinese users might prefer mobile over desktop altogether, and how all of this impacts us.
