@dx "I have to find where in the article this is said in context, instead of it just being in bold" @dx agree! On my blog I have paragraphs with an outline, a bigger font and a different color, but they are just part of the text. @dx @dx It's a freaking mountain, not a tiny hill. Stand your ground. @dx agree 100%. By the way, there is a typo near the start of the alt text. Well, not exactly a typo, looks more like a steno mis-stroke or (maybe more likely) speech to text error? @dx this is the reason why my mind has learned to skip all pull quotes. but then sometimes pull quotes actually contain information that is not mentioned in the body text, and then i miss it completely. you lose both ways, i hate them. @dx @dx Doubly so when it's the headline, so you wind up reading the same sentence three times. Like, I got the idea the first time I read it. Is there any more information to go with it, or are you just padding out column-inches here? @dx thank you for giving these horrible things a name. I hate having these things break up the text. Especially since they tend to be xits (is that what tweets are called these days?), giving away poor source selection. @dx OH SO THAT'S WHAT THOSE THINGS ARE CALLED Yes, they're fricking insufferable because of the unnecessary repetition and redundancy. >..> @dx@social.ridetrans.it rightt if you want to emphasize it just, idk, make the actual thing itself much bigger? |
@dx Cosigning this so hard. I lose my place completely and it's among the most intrusive things people do to text.
