I understand its meant for simplicity, but guys aren't we in AI era now?
I also know people have made lot of extensions and add ons to make it look modern, but what's stopping the admin to vibe code an elegant UI?
Because it's the way people want it. The design is reasonably close to perfect for its use case. Information dense, little chrome, nothing fancy. This is the reason the UI hasn't changed. It's not because the admins don't know how to change it.
You can pander to aspirational intended later reading fantasy by using [favorite] for posts and same for individual comments (if you select on the comment time stamp).
You can unfavorite after reading or just grow a longer and longer list of get around to that later.

Reasonably easy with custom filters on <favorite> afblocker extension.
As long as it is not slow loading, prefer fast, no useless meaningless pictures like on lots media news sites. works different browsers and platforms OK , I like it
It's not just the UI, this site is information poverty, trapped in some hackneyed idea of "news" that likely represents the tired and incestuous interests of the VC class... There are no ideas here and certainly nothing close to progress here. Which morbid climes suit me fine.
This page is 5.0kb and only has 6 other assets. those assets, after being cached, means you get a page load in less than 1 second. Every. Single. Time. This page would load well on a dial-up connection from the 90's.
