> The user experience on the page is quite nice
I wonder if we used the same page. I just got a welcome page. When I input 'patterns' into the search box and hit return, nothing happened. When I clicked on 'Recent Changes' I see a gray bar reading 'activity,' with no contents.
It appears to be a broken test site to me.

I think it's evil, given that it requires me to allow code execution in order to read content.

It can take a while for the individual pages to load [1], some progress notification would be nice. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8989943 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8989943

Nope, that just results in a vertically-divided blank white page, with the non-functional dark-grey bar below. It remains blank after minutes. (This is probably because the wiki doesn't work without JavaScript, making it useless to anyone use lynx, links, elinks, emacs-w3m or NoScript, which is to say anyone concerned with security)
- edwintorok 12y agoIndeed, doesn't work without Javascript.
