I wonder if anyone involved could define 'zen.' I know the answer.

No, they don't. We know this already. And failing student on that basis is just a very quick path to losing lawsuits which will shortly eliminate this question as a serious concern.

"Usually, I would just powerthrough reading the minimized code..."
Huh? Is this a thing? There are endless online code formatting sites. It takes two seconds. Why would anyone ever do this? I don't get it.
Julesman commented on Caniemail.com – like caniuse but for email content caniemail.com/... · Posted by u/fagnerbrack
I think it would be more useful to list the few CSS properties that all email clients do recognize. I don't mean to be flippant. I'm serious.
CanIEmail? The answer is generally no.

Did you read the article? Have you used youtube in the past couple of days?
The change that has people upset isn't border radius. Rather than having the comments below the video and suggestions on the right, the suggested other videos are now below the video you are watching, and the comments are in the narrow slot on the right side of the screen, making it more difficult to read/scan comments.
My guess is by giving suggested other videos the prime real estate, it will cause the user to watch more videos and thus more ads. Reading and creating comments doesn't directly generate revenue. This could backfire because people who enjoy reading/writing comments may come back less frequently or stay less time because they enjoy the site less. It feels less like an ad hoc community and more of what it really is: an ad delivery service.
As someone who pays for ad-free youtube, I resent that not only do I still need to sit through or navigate through in-video ads, but now I find the experience of reading other people's comments and sharing my own more difficult.
Only below the 1000px breakpoint for tablets. Suggested videos probably keep people on the site/app longer than comments. They should have shown 5 videos with a "show more" drawer for the rest. But we know they care more about money than our happieness.
The site positions itself as advocating for simplicity and minimalism in web development—stressing plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript—but then pivots into building the entire project using React. That’s a contradiction.
If the goal is truly "plain vanilla web," introducing React (with its build tools, dependencies, and abstraction layers) runs counter to that ethos. A truly minimalist approach would skip frameworks entirely or at most use small, native JS modules.
So yes, it's philosophically inconsistent. Want to dig into a better alternative stack that sticks to that principle?
