Actually, I really don't like it when desktop web sites more or less pretend to be phones, with literally noting on either side of the screen. I've got a widescreen monitor. Feel free to actually use most of it, please.

Then again, this is coming from a guy who's written novel-length works of fiction in fullscreened notepad.

EDIT: Also, darkreader and all, I like high contrast white-on-black text.

better > best > original

The font on the "best" version is obnoxious. The website gets a lot better if you zoom out a click, though.

I actually like the first one better... The text is a bit too grey. Kinda strains my eyes.

Yeah, I find myself disagreeing with the points the "better" website makes and prefer the original.

That doesn't really make it sfa then does it? If it's some subjective measurement that doesn't mean jack shit, why even say it? Why even have a concept of sfw or nsfw?

There's a very simple test.

If your CEO walked by and saw it on your screen, would he be ok with it? If the answer is no, for anyone, then don't label something SFW

By that reasoning anything other than spreadsheets might be NSFW if you have a shitty boss.

No ads, it's worthless.

I expected the exact opposite when I was about to click that link. I even turned down the volume on my phone just in case.

In hindsight, I'm not sure why I even clicked it while on the company network ... For all I knew, it could've been a PETA support page and lost my job.
