Who needs CSS for justified text when you can just do it 1980-style monospaced justification? This makes me happy, and I have no idea why.

Read it from a tiny screen, you will realise why it is a bad idea.

Reading from a tiny screen being the root bad idea.

I remember using physical screens that only had 64 or even 40 columns. (A printout was more practical for reading anyway. Just tolerate a few minutes of dot-matrix noise.)

It wasn't meant to be read from a screen. (A browser doesn't show the Form Feed character at each page number.)

I think that more than the font being monospace it is that the font is a good font with high contrast rather than whatever thin and light gray font that many sites use to look fancy.

For +90% of web sites I read I only need a "fix font" for the body text and not a full "reader" version of the page.

Probably because it just works, simply. Whereas with the complexity we have today we can barely align things consistently; it's almost comedy

Tip for those with mobile issues: rotate to landscape and the words get bigger ;)

I hate it so much, full of wrong linebreaks. I don't need typewriter or dot matrix compatibility.
