While I'm a big fan of minimalism generally, there comes a point where something can be smoothed out to the point of losing anything that makes it unique. I find that the current approach to the Midnight is one such example. Even doing away with replies isn't something that would turn me off, although I don't agree with making dialogue harder. But the lack of _any_ customization (especially a way to instill some kind of dark mode) makes reading the site not very pleasant.
For those who may have enjoyed what I write, I mirror everything on another site, and plan to continue posting there until another more comfortable spot opens up.
Or you can send a message my way directly.
I like the site more than your mirrors on Medium and Substack. Those feel too Web 2.0 for me.
I also caught a typo in an Elegy for Cyberpunk:
You can get around much of these, but only but devoting significant time and effort to doing so, and you may often have to do without some aspects of those services.
