I mean the HTML is in the worst tradition of mid-90s web pages - table-based layout, spacer GIFs, inline styles and generally awkward mark-up that I'd reject if it were in a PR. My user style has a bunch of rules like ".ind img[width = "40"]" just to change the indentation of nested comments lol. Writing a new comment and editing an existing one work differently if done in a new tab, which is a minor niggle, more so having even the simplest of AJAX-based inline comment posting would be lovely. Could we get some comment styling improvements though? Using backticks for `inline code`, ~~strikethrough~~, block quoting with > and code blocks using ``` - especially with highlighting by specifying a language - would just make communication richer without changing the site's tone IMO.
