Hacker News Reader

On desktop the background follows the mouse. I couldn't focus on anything else, I move my mouse around while I read.

If the author is reading these, please consider using a static background.

I couldn't finish anything past the first paragraph because the background made me nauseous

Firefox reader view FTW...

I only see that weird background stuff if I have my global dark mode browser extensions on

when I turn that off, I can't see any background effects at all

same with chrome 95.0.4638.69. whatever they intended it to look like, they failed.

edit. Its a dark mode issue, styling not being applied to the background rendering

Lucky you.
