Well, it’s also why we now have the things like the Stylish and Greasemonkey add-ons for Firefox, and the http://userstyles.org/ resource on the Web (not to mention the whole world of “unusual” Web browsers, such as Lynx.) That is: the /readers/ too want to tailor that “look and feel” to /their/ tastes, to get rid of the poor design choices of the Web publishers, – and to thus improve their “Web reading experience.” -- FSF associate member #7257 http://boycottsystemd.org/ … 3013 B6A0 230E 334A
