jtreitz··on 1,741 "informed" consents with one click? GDPR complaint filed
My Samsung TV which I bought 8 years ago now suddenly asks me if it's okay they share data with their over 200 partners. They have the nerves to headline this with "protect your privacy". Generally not a big fan of EU policing but I wish somebody sued them over this.

We do not change the order of the photos, we just try to find a good set of breaking points inside that order.

Actually, Chromatic tries to read the EXIF "DateTimeOriginal" information to sort the photos and falls back to the "LastModifiedDate" if the former doesn't work.

Actually, you're right! It's the same picture, scaled down to around 500x500 and with a heavy gaussian blur applied to it. The trick is to have a subtle grain effect over it to eliminate gradient artifacts.

Yes, we figured the page scrolls slow if there are too many photos in the DOM at the same time so the lazy-load-function also removes them when out of scope.
