Only an apple fanboy can side with an opinion based on the color scheme and visual appearance of the site. :)

- sedev 15y agoThat's a mischaracterization of the statement you're responding to. Gruber and Thurott's sites are actually a neat microcosm of some trends that they also come down on opposite sides of. Gruber delivers content as a product to an audience. Thurott is delivering an audience, as a product, to advertisers.
- frou_dh 15y agoMy comment was only on the matter of taste that the parent brought up. Take a look at Gruber's rates, he's raking in the advertising money, yet in a neatly packaged way.

- barista 15y agoNote to self: Never make a joke about apple fanboys. They might have a better sense of design but poor comedic sense and would slam you down with downvotes.
- sedev 15y agoGenerally if you have to explain to someone that it was a joke, it was a bad joke.
- neutronicus 15y agoI downvoted you because you used the word "fanboy". It's my policy.
- barista 15y agoYou sir, must have a busy life here on HN.
- neutronicus 15y agoUnfortunately, yes. I haven't been able to get it to catch on.
- frou_dh 15y agoThank You For Your Service
- DeusExMachina 15y agoOr maybe you will be downvoted by all the HN crowd according to the rules "don't call names" and "only contribute with something that adds value to the discussion" and "don't complain for being downvoted.
