xypnox··on HN but it is not an eyesore
I take this comment from GP as not criticizing but just showing his/her superiority.

> Making an unfounded assertion that long lines cause eye strain doesn't make your css any better. I certainly don't suffer from such a debilitating limitation. Anyone who does can just make their window narrower, or bump up the font size in their browser.

He/She is certainly not providing any critical feedback.

I do apologize for lashing out, and I don't have any excuse to put in for that.

Thanks for the feedback, I didn't know about that specific condition. I would suggest playing with the CSS to match the contrast you are favorable with, probably a white on black would work fine.

Also, I have updated the title size with rem units as well. Thanks for pointing that out.

You are behaving as if I have changed hn itself. I haven't. If you don't want to, you don't have to use the changes.

Also, I hope you do buy a monitor with more than 480p res to understand that the world has moved on and there actually is more content on the monitor than you see rn.

But that makes it easier to read, you can't read a lot of things at once and you can always scroll. Also less strain to the eyes as they don't have to move horizontally a lot.
