Unfortunately, the infinite scroll page doesn't work very well... but this one scrolls normal and doesn't open random pages, and it seems to be the same stream of picutures: https://pdimagearchive.org/galleries/all/random/desc

Fair enough, I'd say for niche content it may be okay, but for targeting broader audiences I'd guess you lose many readers with that readability on fullscreen browser windows (what most people will have in front of them while surfing I guess).

Do you think I will resize my browser window just because you fucked up your layout? No, I will leave.

The text flows over the whole width is one point, the paddings and margins is another one. Sure, you can read this if you really want, but it's painful.

You're probably right, but since Google Search displays an AI-generated answer as the first result, most people end up using this feature more often than they originally intended. It's there now, and it will likely replace traditional search for the general public. Not entirely, but perhaps to a large extent.

Edit: corrected bad spelling with AI XD

But people use it for that. So what's your point?

I don't know, it's a nice library and a lot effort goes into it. And nobody else does this, such a project exists only on their shoulders.

Why would they share this info on the worst page of the internet? They have own pages where they could share information...

Sure, thats why people hire others... I just wanted to say that even with WordPress it's not easy to build a website.

Most people hired someone for handling WordPress. Rally, most people are overwhelmed with that complexity.
