Ask HN: Which are your favourite blogs in terms of aesthetics?
I recently redesigned my blog (alexmolas.com) to a minimalistic design. My favourite blogs are all minimalistic since I believe it's easier to focus on the content. For example I love the style of gregorygundersen.com
Which are your favourite blogs in terms of style? Without taking into account the content of the blogs.
- Quinzel 3y agoProbably one of the things I appreciate most is a blog in dark mode. Unsure why, but I just prefer dark mode. I just looked at your blog. Very minimalist. Was it inspired by someone else?
- alexmolas 3y agoI took inspiration from gregorygundersen.com for the style and Paul Graham's blog for the fonts. And probably a lot more that I'm not conscious of.
- theGeatZhopa 3y agoIs it called esthetic having minimalistic design of whatever? In my opinion nope. Minimalistic DESIGN is to work with what you have and not more than that. That implies the typefaces used, to position them in a sort to fulfill the DESIGN. As an example a goog link: https://www.google.de/search?q=minimalistic+design+typography https://www.google.de/search?q=minimalistic+design+typograph... So it's not like minimalistic == as less elements as possible. It's rather the usage of type to produce a sort of harmony for eyes.

- alexmolas 3y agoThat's a cool blog! I like the style and the content seems great. If you don't mind maybe I'll get some inspiration for my blog from yours :)
