A small rant: I think it is bad practice to hide content below the page height. I just wanted to close the website because I thought 'nothing to see here' before I accidentally scrolled and more content was revealed.

- crazygringo 13y agoIt has really faint text semi-transparent text on a semi-transparent background which is covered by a Twitter icon, at least in my Chrome with my browser height. If I zoom out all the way, there's still no indication you can scroll down, because the page "helpfully" hides everything from you. It's pretty bad.
- eniacpx 13y agoAgreed, also, don't make me click on a button to figure out what I am looking at and why I should be interested.
- swift 13y agoI read this comment before actually going to the site, which is fortunate, because I'm certain I would've missed the rest of the content if you hadn't pointed that out. I rarely complain about design issues on websites but this a case where things should really be changed.
