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.
