Has anyone else been rate limited for all of stackoverflow.com after seeing the filters? I assume that's not part of the joke

Even though I'm not an FB user, the Bookface theme isn't half bad.

Came here to post this - the bookface theme seems to emphasize the question and answer section more than the usual default. I try not to look at the left and right sections anyway, since they're usually just a distraction. Wish there was an option to de-emphasize everything except the middle section..

> Wish there was an option to de-emphasize everything except the middle section..

to do that, I used ublock origin picker tool to permanently hide the sidebars (except related questions). Though that's more of a "nuclear" option

the 3D filter nearly blinded me and I was fuming that the biggest feature they've added in years was useless filters. then i remembered april fools day.... they got me so good

Hey, this is actually good even after April 1st. Especially the Bookface theme. Maybe they would keep this feature?

I was sure this is another copy website of stackoverflow

It's fun but I wish they didn't set the 3d glasses as default, it nearly gave me a headache

A lot of the fonts on the themes don't seem to render properly for me (chrome on macos), they show up as quite pixelated and hard to read.

The Frisa Lank theme is pretty cheery though, gives the site a different / fresh and playful feel without feeling like a different site.

Damn. I forgot it's April 1st. First i thought Edge has scaling problems, then i tought it's a new milestone in web design.

Honestly I really hope the Neo option stays. I'd use SO this way forever
