One of my passions is organizing the firehose of information we are bombarded with daily, and finding ways to make it all make sense.
I just tooted this from a Terminal!

I'm sure a lot of web folk are going to say "wow you're late to the party" but the fact that the <h1> tag's text size shrinks for every <article> or <section> it's inside of, but the other tags (like <h2>) do not.

That is a *BONKERS* decision and it's apparently intentional

Mastodon is my favorite place to find locally sourced, ethically harvested, renewable, hand-curated, small batch disdain.

Ok so to everyone saying this is Ironic... You would prefer that all major newspapers use 100% free models and depend on shitty clickbait to make money?

I don't know if its occurred to many people saying they believe all news should be free... but we have a big issue with free news being incredibly low quality and pushing clickbait. You ever noticed that there's an ENORMOUS difference in quality between the free, advertising-driven sites, and the paid sites?

It's a mess of a problem. Because now we have all the actual high-quality news sites being pay-walled while all of the shitty garbage news sites are free. However, to say the solution is that ALL sites, even those trying to do great journalism, must use the clickbait and advertising model is really absurd IMO. You'd essentially be arguing that high quality news doesn't matter and that they should just make themselves shittier in order to reach more audience.
