The SourceHut design gives a strong sense that it's the byproduct of a set of intentional choices. But I don't agree with those choices. Simplicity and unpretentiousness in design are good, but simplicity isn't an end in itself. Even in minimal designs you want to guide the eye & cleanly separate functional areas. SourceHut is a big expanse of blank white with certain elements shaded gray but others arbitrarily not. The eye gets lost. If you stop and read the labels, the names are idiosyncratic.

My annoyance with them is more based in the fact that, while their minimalist layout looks like it will be good for older/simpler web browsers, they now use Anubis to block anything that can't run JavaScript, so I can't look up cool projects from Links, Lynx or Dillo anymore!
