I always want people to tell me what they think brutalism means. I feel like it's one of those words that people just use to mean a lot of different things, some that I would not expect. I'm not even saying you can't do that, just tell me what it means to you so I can calibrate.

It seems to be a trend. Honestly, brutalist.report is my daily driver now and my preferred gateway into HN and many other news sites that I frequent. (not that HN is bad, just now there's a similar aggregator) I think I am pleased with a definition of brutalism on the web that equates to "does not load a pile of JS, autoplay videos, trash, and tracking -- and just sets up a quick, clean, bunch of links to consider" -- if this is where we are heading , I'm pro-brutalism. :)
