A side note about that website. Thin and Extra-Thin fonts have no place in web design (there are some exceptions in huge title text). They are an unnecessary burden for people with limited eyesight and elderly people[1]. Even for me, on my 1366x768 screen (which is still the single most common resolution for cheap notebooks, dear HiDPI web designers[2]), the bullet text is hardly readable, the copyright line is completely unreadable. This effect is made even worse by choosing inadequate contrasts[3]. One can use subtle colors for increased contrast.[4]

- hood_syntax 10y agoNot sure why you were downvoted, I think it's entirely reasonable to bring up his concerns in an issue regardless of whether they are eventually implemented.
