IBM Plex – A new typeface

It's almost like the UI designer took it as a personal challenge to see how horrible they could make the experience.

I read this comment thinking it was a "typical HN overreaction" but then looked at the page and oh my god you couldn't be more right

I normally don't mind things like the NYT experimental pages, but this one is just egregious. When you get to the big IBM, nothing works but the scroll wheel for me.

Things you expect to scroll the page:

* Arrow keys

* Scroll Bar

* Page Up/Down Keys

* Hold middle mouse button

* Scroll wheel (ONLY THIS WORKS)

* Mobile swipe (didn't test)

Or maybe they hired an animator as their UI designer.
