    The most extreme virtue-signal is to go completely browser-default and have no styling whatsoever. Like lowercasing because your pinky can't be arsed to reach for the shift-key even though you've a billion dollars in series A.

    Very funny. Although ironic that this whole library was built with AI.

    Man... That's satire on a whole another level. What a technical and deep sense of humor.
