#2It is hard to take any stylesheet seriously when their website doesn't even properly use meta color scheme tags. Also, their examples are like the opposite of normal element approaches to what you're trying to accomplish.
for quote attribution? How does that even make sense?

I put cite in blockquote - I thought that was the "rule".
Meta color was new for me -- https://css-tricks.com/meta-theme-color-and-trickery/

He’s demonstrating the various components, rather than having actual testimonials, and as such this is just a joke.

#6This is amazing! Exactly what I was looking for when I was building my MVP, just a responsive, standard looking stylesheet I could plug-in.
All the supposedly JS-free CSS frameworks use JS for their most basic components.
I bought a template on one of those template sites but it needed like 20 JS scripts just to display the landing page.
I thought of trying the Zengarden stylesheets but they didn't cover the components I needed for a saas website, and they were also way too characterful.
I'm past the MVP stage but I would have paid for this if I had seen it 6 months ago, at least the price of a template: 20-50$.

#7Quite a lot of stylesheets in this simillar vein [0]. Basically doing CSS by using HTML5 semantic elements instead of classes.
My personal favorite is Water.css [1], because it looks good and makes very good use of HTML5 semantics. Tacit [2] is also amazing.

I did my best looking at the source in my mobile browser, thinking they’d somehow misused the meta theme-color feature, but they haven’t used that at all. It seems your gripe is that they haven’t provided dark mode styles. Which is a reasonable gripe (and I provide them for my site even though I prefer light mode), but clarity is really helpful especially when criticizing someone’s work in a detailed way.
As far as the blockquote/footer tag combination, it’s definitely not ideal but it is semantically valid.
Anyway, HN has enough people quick to criticize so I’ll leave it at this: you have valid complaints about the submission, but I imagine the authors would be receptive to them as suggestions which take no more effort.

Love the “social” proof by the author himself:
