I love the design and usability of hacker news. It's minimal, efficient, non-distracting, consistent and puts content first. I wish more news website would be like that.
The libreoffice website, on the other hand, has a lot of visual elements (icons, colors) that don't really fit well with each other.
Visual-heavy websites can be quite nice, but they need to be really thought through.
- vacipr 14y agoI'm not going to get into the whole hacker news is magnificent debate.We all know most users are screaming for improvement. As for the libreofice site the only color I see is green which is what they usually use and the libreoffice icons. What am I missing ?
