Hacker News Reader

My cousin runs a very small home-made html blog. I really like it and it gives me that early 2000s nostalgia. I'm sure he'd be psyched if some people here were to read it.

Love it, colorscheme and all. It's very legible for me.

Sorry. No. Tell him something about ergonomics and bad contrast. That color-scheme is a NO-GO.

I somehow suspect that the poor contrast and readability are part of the aesthetic he's going for.

That's all well and good for him, but not for me.

First impression of that site: WTF?! Trying to scroll, have a bright red scroll-bar. WADDYA DOIN' WIFF MY BROWSA, DUDE?!

Trying to make sense of the text, having to squint. Switching off uBlock (benefit of doubt, etc.), to see if it messes with some JS/CSS. No joy.

Don't care.

Tab closed.

Done.
