I know you want to promote (synthical.com), but the readability of that site is very poor.

FWIW, to me it is just an embedded PDF. Sure, lots of empty space, but not terrible either.

Here's the arxiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.02373

Here it is in dark mode: https://arxiv.black/abs/2411.02373

(Seriously, we need to be offering dark mode more... I just wish the browser's pdf readers would also convert to dark mode and not be so bright. I can't be the only one that likes to read papers at night)

Is this a bad thing?

I don’t think so. I mean it’s not like I don’t have zoom

Would love to hear your feedback and improve it! Could you please tell me more?

pdf rendering is very slow, text is too small to read.

what browser / OS?

> text is too small to read

do you have any solution that would fix it? idk, would "+" and "-" buttons (to zoom in / out) work?

Arc+Mac

why default to small text?
