Since the post thumbnails got implemented a couple of weeks ago, the main page got a lot more, how do I put it, untidier. Before, it was very clean and unifying, with every post being roughly the same, and in theme with the rest of the design.

But after thumbnails it got a little messy. With images having different aspect ratios, sometimes not loading (just as a technical side issue). Images extracted from the articles are generally ugly and don’t have much to do with the actual context of the article (at least in my view).

I would actually prefer completely getting rid of any images (except for memes and any other picture-based formats), since this way all the focus is given to the actual contexts of a post and posts look nicer imo. Also, this reduces the page size a lot, which is nice. Dunno, maybe a compromise could be reached with specific criteria for aspect ratios…

Just wanted to ask if I’m the only person who’s bothered by that?
