You have the right to stop an experiment. That what experiment are for.

It should be repeated and I thing this is someone doing the right thing all the way (experimenting then, after learning, ending the experiment)

Thanks. I did expect it to last longer than this when I publicly announced the project, but it was still a good learning exercise and that's a good outcome too.

Congrats on taking your initiative through a full lifecycle. As an aside: I really enjoyed the website aesthetics -- the layout and design for one, but also the "ascii screenshots" rendered in <div class="terminal">. Very nice.

Thanks, I appreciate hearing that. I had fun building the site and seeing how far I could get with default styles. I also tested in Dillo and links as I figured if it worked there it would work pretty much anywhere.

100%. And doing a post-mortem explaining why for bonus points.
