Lovely! Definitely like the style here and the focus on content first. Like other people have said it's similar to Motherfucking Website[1], and a Better Motherfucking Website[2]. I'll need to start including this when I link to those two.
For my website[3] I'm really trying to keep weight on the wire down too so I am opting to skip the custom font and header image. It's quite nice to have 10-15kb pages in the age of the web obesity crises[4]. A header image and a custom font does have a big effect on how personal the content ends up though.

- Normal_gaussian 10y agoNice website! I particularly like the simple links at the top, but found the list of articles confusing - it took a while for me to realise that the articles weren't just one paragraph filler texts.
- K0nserv 10y agoThanks and you are absolutely right about the list links not feeling very clickable. I'll add some hover effect to make it more clear. Thanks for the feedback.
- Siilwyn 10y agoUnderlining links always help.
- Normal_gaussian 10y agoI first viewed on my mobile so hover won't work. I couldn't think of a good solution so didn't give one, sorry.
- jff 10y agoCongratulations on not using any Javascript on the front page, except for what looks like the same email-obfuscating JS that Cloudflare injected on my site until I disabled that. In my mind, external JS is one of the worst things you can do to a website, and even self-hosted JS is bad if it's affecting layout/behavior much: people without JS enabled get a crap experience. Your site looks great!
- K0nserv 10y agoThanks, I've gotten rid of the CloudFlare email-obfuscation wasn't aware that was enabled. It's now 100% JS free which is nice. I actually recently got rid of GA because I didn't want to have to add JS to implement a cookie banner to comply with EU regulations.
- jff 10y agoYeah, I can see how a lot of people would want the email obfuscation but I don't--especially as I was polishing off a blog post about how ideologically pure my website is, with no javascript or external resources! I got rid of GA because Cloudflare provides some analytics and that's enough for me.
- K0nserv 10y agoAgreed the CloudFlare analytics are good enough
- exolymph 10y agoYou left out Best Motherfucking Website! https://bestmotherfucking.website/ https://bestmotherfucking.website/ (It's my favorite.) Also I really like your personal site. The design is beautiful.
- K0nserv 10y agoWasn't aware of that one, glad to see new ones keep cropping up. Thanks for the kind words
