This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I was surprised by how functional it is. I thought an analog, print-first font would look weird on an OLED screen, but it actually made the UI look more serious and it gets out of the way. I also found it's much easier for my brain to sight-read than the curvy Samsung font, funnily enough. I think it must be because I've encountered Times since childhood meaning the shapes of the words are burnt into my brain. Or perhaps it's the thick/thin parts of the letters being where my brain expects them to be.
