why the site is like this

This site is text-first on purpose. I want you to find a heading, follow a link, and read without the rest of the page getting in the way.

I use Vim, and I used Vimium in the browser for years. A site made mostly of headings, links, lists, and paragraphs is easier to move through with a keyboard.

Clarity matters more than decoration. Color has a job here. External links get it because they take you elsewhere. Internal links stay quiet, with underlines when the surrounding text needs them.
