Does hesitation mean something else where you live?

Steve Huffman commends you on upholding his moderation policy.

They could be pulling something sneaky here. The vast majority of people lurk, and most people who lurk probably don’t even have accounts. If you haven’t bothered to sign up, you probably haven’t bothered to use the old interface or a third party application. It wouldn’t surprise me if the vast majority of their traffic comes through the standard web interface, even if the stats for user activity paint a different picture.

It is a mixed bag. When reading excessively long lines of text, it becomes difficult to locate the next line after completing one. Allowing lines of text to become too long is considered poor typography for this reason. When the lines are constrained to a reasonable length, the text becomes easier to read. Think about a page from a novel, or a sheet of A4 paper. They are shaped like that for a reason. Of course, images and video are another story. Constraining the size of an image or video with such wide margins does nothing to aid visibility.
