I don't like how they altered the scroll on their webpage.
- currysausage 11y agoI don't like how they altered the font on their webpage to something that is so thin that strokes are only visible as subpixels. Glad the API docs use a readable normal-weight font instead. If you need to visually "hide" the text in order to make it look "clean," you're doing typography wrong.
- epmatsw 11y agoI wonder if they changed it since this comment. It's about the same as HN for me now.
- freehunter 11y agoI thought it was odd how the page loads with normal text, then blinks for a second and the text gets 2x thinner. If it takes time to load your fonts, you're doing fonts wrong.
- xigency 11y agoI'm fine with the fonts, I just noticed when I middle-clicked to scroll the page, the page moved like it was underwater. Really unnecessary for a text document. The offending CSS is: html { scroll-behavior: smooth; } Only noticing this issue in Firefox.
- nilliams 11y agoAs that is a CSS spec, the implementation of which you don't like, it's the browser that's offending, not the CSS.
- xigency 11y agoSure, if you like to read while you're wading through butter. It's a usability thing. Anyways, they do it on their whole site, and it's more cohesive on the other pages. It's better to view the release notes in readerview I guess.
