I love how even something as silly and unimportant as this has 13 open issue reports on GitHub.

The license one was opened nearly 6 years ago.

CSS art always reminds me to the acid tests, back in the old days. We come from far! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid2

If you check the pull requests tab there's also a showcase of why some people resist putting stuff on GitHub. Most of the pull requests are low-effort tickets like "update bart.css" with no further explanation and a bunch of random changes in the diff.

Those tests were definitely fun, and gave me lots of "my browser is better than yours" bragging rights.

I'm surprised that it's the year 2020 and Firefox still doesn't score 100% in the Acid3 test.

That is because the acid3 test is broken or expects non standard behavior.

This is cool - CSS art is one of the first things I tried when learning to program. I wonder if we will ever see a CSS art exhibition at a gallery or something.

Krusty looks pretty terrifying though.

It will never have. And that is also fine.

Acid3 was a great step forward at its time, but it just isn't that useful any more. There are so many more specs that are more important.

I was wondering why I suddenly had an influx of Twitter followers this morning...

Thanks to whoever shared this.
