Probably. Of all the souls I have met in my travels, his was the most… human.

This joint is very different. I predict much complaining and gnashing of teeth, but I suspect we’ll all get used to it in the long run.

Hard to get used to all this white space. The place feels like a huge, non-defragmented hard drive.

There’s a way to go darker. I ain’t messing with that tho’.  
I’m still not sure what I’m doing.  
Go look at the pet pics thread. The pics are huge.

Or you can change to a different theme. The classic Discourse and Simple Sam both have square avatars.

So here I am. Not sure I like the place. It’s not home yet. I suspect we will all grow accustomed in time, and hopefully some of the rough edges and sharp corners can be rounded off to make this place more useful and usable.

God this place is a fraiking hideous eyesore.
