Please tell me the rounded corners at the bottom of the screen are just for the effect and they aren't actually physically like that. This would be worse than the current notch, you can even see them clipping the text in the LM Studio picture.

Some hard to swallow pills for tech companies in 2026: data not collected in the first place cannot leak.

Well, sorry! Make the payment process and the website at least half as frictionless and private, and I'll be happy to pay!

And then you realize that, ironically, LLMs and archive.today, both actual bots, can scrape the site just fine. The latter also serving you the content with no paywalls, ads, JavaScript, permalinks that 404 after a year, and all the other anti-features. It's almost as if news websites looked at the pains one has to go through to legally play a video game in 2026 and all unanimously went "I want this!".

Fair. I wish low quality submissions received similar treatment to low quality comments, or at least had their own category, separate from the main page.

I'm sorry, but going on that website made me feel like I was being greeted by an AI support technician or recruiter.

I understand—these days, there are more reasons to vibe a landing page than not. To many, however, this page is going to be their first encounter with the project. While it sure is shallow to judge a book solely by its cover, in this case, the cover just blatantly screams "we haven't even tried"... Can you really blame people for not looking beyond it if even its own creator gave it a similar amount of attention? Especially in 2026, when everything preys on your attention and generating plausibly-looking low-effort projects has never been easier?

Iceland is already part of Schengen, EFTA, and NATO. They're in the best position there is, having negotiated the best the EU has to offer but not the bad parts, such as the Euro, Pfizer deals, the migration and asylum pact, or age verification. I can't imagine them joining the EU being anything but a massive downgrade for them.

I like how some people take offence at that

It's not a Claude generated website without at least one `backdrop-filter: blur(1000px)` element that slows older machines to a crawl

This. While I'm generally opposed to using LLMs to make changes in critical parts of systems, a vibed spec just naturally prompts a vibed implementation.

I would appreciate an LLM usage disclosure

It's an industry where companies with "open" right in the name lobby against open models and training on stolen data is viewed as more ethical than training on existing models. It takes some time to catch up with reality there.
