It’s ‘minified’, in case you’re not familiar with that. Basically, many webpages come with such obscene amounts of JavaScript, that it genuinely impacts how quickly the webpage downloads. And then replacing such amenities as whitespace or readable variable names with just 1 space or 1 letter, where possible, genuinely improves on that.

I know what it is and I hate it.

Gzipped files are about the same size and the code would still be readable by people wanting to learn.

The modern web is an abortion.

Create post

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

  • The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author’s website, for instance).
  • The comic must be a complete story.
  • If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
  • You may post comics from others or your own.
  • If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
  • The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
  • Politeness.
  • Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
