I don’t know what “Figma” is but it sounds stupid.

I’ve had this in my collection for years.

Hell yeah, please ban declawing. It’s inhumane. And no, I’m not a nut or even a vegetarian (and nothing wrong with vegetarians), I’m just sane.

Why would you gatekeep what’s on a pizza? There’s a whole range of textures and flavors that work, that you’re telling people they can’t experience because you’re a hardcore traditionalist? Let good food be good food.

Holy crap, this is useful. Thanks!

There is also a space after an ellipsis… like this.

Not…like this.

I don’t care if everyone does it wrong, it’s both harder to read (less functional) and it flies against normal punctuation conventions.

Also, don’t get your punctuation inspiration from Japanese games. An ellipsis is three periods, no more. Exclamation mark always goes after question mark. (“?!” = correct) Japan adopted our punctuation marks and did it their way. If you’re writing in English, do it the English-language way.

Same opinion. And I like both!

Thanks, been arguing this for ages.

Fuck yes. Only people who argue otherwise are illogical traditionalists.

I find that all countries do some pretty weird things. Some more than others, Japan.

Discovered it years ago!

Holy shit, another person who calls it that! I found it on accident years ago and I love to use that term.

Writer here. Don’t blindly follow dumb style rules. I write how I speak; and when you write how you speak, you end up using a lot of semicolons and em dashes (if you’re competent). Each “pausing-type” punctuation means something specific, and they are all vital for clarity and natural flow. And informal or spliced sentences are good. Style rules are too formal, and sometimes as antiquated as “‘ain’t aint’ a word”. So instead do what works— what makes things natural and easy to read.

Aspartame gave me terrible headaches. Then I became diabetic. Turns out by that time sucralose was more popular. It doesn’t give me headaches and it tastes fine. After so long of having sucralose, I can now tolerate aspartame. Still gross though.

Can I also live in your fantasyland where you get choices like this?

Okay, but… it’s just a page. Try building a store or something like Lemmy with just static HTML and only enough CSS to make larger or bolder fonts and see where that gets you.

Google is bad, but nuance in your argument is still important.

Same, Bulbapedia is great.

I know I’m going to get downvoted for this, but “modern UI” doesn’t have to suck. It’s just that a lot of companies don’t give a shit. Modern design is about accessibility— about the ease of finding and using things (including general readability). Google and many others have violated these principles with their “modern” UIs. People shouldn’t say “modern bad”, they should say “Google bad”.

Serebii.net on the other hand is “old web”— and man is it an unusable, unreadable, un-navigatable, overwhelming piece of crap. And I will take that opinion to the grave. Both Google and Serebii.net can be awful, fam.

Well for one, a person who isn’t serious.

Why would that be a troll? Even if their opinion is wrong, it’s still an opinion. Being wrong doesn’t make one a troll. I am pretty sick to death of people calling everything “trolling”.
