You seem to be discounting the possibility that you’re subtly degrading their experience, sufficiently slowly that they’ve yet to revolt en masse. The blind spot of A/B testing is slowly building resentment for a slowly degrading product. I couldn’t tell you every single specific way that in which Duolingo has slowly become terrible over the years, but I can tell you I am no longer a paying subscriber.
> Feels comically large to me.
I browse the Internet at between a 125 and 200 percent zoom, so I guess it feels comically small to me. I don’t understand why I should strain my eyes to “fit more content in” - scrolling is free, and I can only read one thing at a time anyway.
- breckenedge 3y agoDo you use zoom on HN too?
- troad 3y agoYes. 200%.
- breckenedge 3y agoAnd that’s on desktop, mobile, or both?
