Its even worse than that. Navigation is just totally broken. For example I clicked your link then on that page I clicked Our Manifesto. The URL changed to https://frizbee.co/#OurManifesto5589a552786d5 but the page content did not change! This seems to happen all over.

Totally dont need to re-engineer hyperlinks. They are hyperlinks!

(logo in the left hand corner does change the url to https://frizbee.co/#HotPosts but as you and I said it just doesnt work)

These glitches have since been fixed.

Performance is awful on my i7.

You should use less js. I should not be able to watch things being indented and layouts being modified as the page loads.

Yup can't even browse with JS turned off unlike HN/reddit.

On the other hand, Tumblr requires JavaScript... and the sites you listed require it for voting and commenting.

I find it funny you reply to this and not my comment above... what does reinventing hyperlinks get you other than screwing up user experience????

Because Tumblr does it too???

What is the positive???

No they haven't. I don't notice anything different - still navigation bugs.

The real question is why? What are you getting from replacing hyperlinks with something that performs horribly and needs debugging and has a poor user experience?
