Hacker News already does look like made in Win95 age.

Simplicity has strong potential for standing the test of time.

Combined with consistency.

I just let out a big oof IRL. Not sure if that it’s a bad thing or aesthetic though, to be honest.

Function over form. I don't think this is a bad thing, HN doesn't need to be any more advanced, it does its job really well as is.

Browsing pages of Who is Hiring when the comments move to other pages sucks.

[josefrichter]

Exactly. It works. Takes balls not to touch things that work.

[wtetzner]

It would be nice if it supported markdown, though.

[pedrocx486]

It supports some markdown, but I agree, that and a dark mode (I made a really basic one for the Stylish extension) would be the only things I'd accept as a change.

Aside that anything like making the site full of JS for more functions would be a no from me. :-)

Really? With those little voting arrows?

[aspenmayer]

Aptly put.
