This website's UI is not the prettiest, but it's extremely intuitive and functional. That's much more important in most cases.

Agreed of course, and actually I don’t mind the look.

The problems are: small unreadable font, small controls/buttons, content too wide to read comfortably, doesn’t correctly support mobile, links that rely on cookies that expire (what is this? 1998?).
