Jeez that's a big paint brush you're slinging around. That's the problem when non-front-end guys make decisions about tech sometimes, they choose stuff that seems easy to integrate without caring about things like accessibili

If we decimate the insect population there won't be any nans or corner stores. If a street light is the only thing keeping your nan safe then maybe your area has bigger safety issues to address. Regardless, for any issue there is usual

The ability to open a separate tab or window for each thread is what I'd like. Really anything would be an improvement over a single, fixed-width column for a thread.

Almost every comment thread, regardless of topic, has someone shitting on front-end developers and it's extremely demoralizing.

If I browse for more than a couple minutes on my appletv, the UI becomes super unresponsive. I have to force quit the app to return to normal. I wonder if disabling autoplay trailers will help prevent this behavior.
