This site exemplifies something that really annoys me with Google's material design framework. On my 13" screen, I can see a grand total of four items at a time: https://i.imgur.com/6YJxj0b.png
I really wish they'd consider information density as a plus when designing pages like this.
It's more than material design, it's all modern design. Most modern websites, application UIs, game UIs, all have inches and inches and inches of whitespace.
That's because you're screen is rotated the wrong way. Looks like this site was designed for the most common user, who is on mobile and has a lot more vertical real estate than horizontal.
That's not a material problem really. It's just this site.
