Good ideas but not applicable to HN. HN has the simplest, cleanest, no distractions, information dense UI i have seen. It perfectly suits the site and medium.

Good ideas but not applicable to HN.
HN has the simplest, cleanest, no distractions, information dense UI i have seen. It perfectly suits the site and medium. I wish more sites would adopt this approach of "actual usefulness" rather than "prettifying" into a complicated broken mess.
- xk_id 3y agoIt's worse than a "complicated broken mess". It doesn't work at all on iOS 14.3 (iPhone). It's just stuck displaying some glowing squares. There is an increasing number of websites which are becoming broken on iOS 14.3. https://thesaurus.com https://thesaurus.com is another example; it used to work fine, until a few months ago, when they pushed a frontend update that now results in an "Unexpected application error"; not even partial functionality, only the error message is displayed. I find revolting this culture of mandatory technology upgrades that add no real value.
