peak web design.
- sunrunner 1y agoPeak page load performance too
- jekwoooooe 1y agoNonresponsive, low contrast, and unusable on mobile so not really. This is very 1999 design

- jekwoooooe 1y ago“Works” as in the page loads, sure. That’s not a good metric
- protocolture 1y ago>Nonresponsive, low contrast, and unusable on mobile Like I said.
- Analemma_ 1y agoAs much as I enjoy dunking on the various annoying fads in contemporary web design, it’s easy to make an identical mistake in the opposite direction and romanticize the past too much. This page is close to unusable: the low-contrast black-on-green text is hard to read, the click targets are tiny, and it doesn’t work at all at mobile. I don’t really blame the site creator because it seems like this hasn’t been updated in a long time, but I want to push back on your attitude. We can embrace usability without giving in to web slop.
