I really like the minimalism of these. I guess the interesting part of the linked article was the guy wanted to make his blog look exactly the same as it was before he made the optimisations

lol, hating on bad style and then coming with a bright background.

Is this a joke?!

I optimized my blog in a similar way: http://beza1e1.tuxen.de/blog_en.html

I also recently made a minimalistic news aggregator for german news: http://textnews.neocities.org

I'm actually not a fan of how it looks. It was hard to read on my phone.

Same. Grandparents' linked site looks like the work of a bandwagoner that doesn't know what he's doing.

Compared with the others it was hard to read on my laptop. I can only imagine how grim it'll be on a phone.

It's hard to tell when the irony and sarcasm gets that deep, but I think it's intentionally bad. Their changes are 1. a hipster domain, 2. monospace fonts and 3. lower contrast, which are recent design trends that I believe they are mocking and part of what the original was reacting against.

This looks fantastic to me, for some reason. How I wish most of the web looked more like this rather than full of Hero images.

Looks too old school to me :\

I think the idea here is to get a modern look with minimal code. Like the first page shows (the one without styling) it's easy to create a light weight website, it's hard to make it look like its from 2017.
