As much as I think a website like this is beautiful, I always get highly annoyed when browsing stuff like this. There's a giant scrollable area with no text at the beginning, so I thought I had to click the little mac-like titlebar window buttons. When text finally appears, I have to wait for the animations before I can read. If I decide to scroll fast I lose text. My laptop fan keeps running all the time, which highly annoys me. People, please stop making websites like these. Keep the beautiful graphics but please kill all animation, make the site static.
- dclowd9901 3y agoPolitely disagree. Keep these sites because they’re cool and I think they really flex the muscle of the medium, but for people who just want some straightforward long form journalism, have a “simple” style sheet.
- manuelmoreale 3y agoI agree but make them usable on mobile. Scrolling this article on a phone was an atrocious experience.
- febed 3y agoI agree, ironic that it’s taking about bad web design when it has hard to read fonts and a Mario like character jumping around.
- rchaud 3y agoThis is what passes for "interactivity" in this day and age. Scrolly-telling web design from NYTimes interactive style guide 2012.
