These are some issues that actively frustrate me to the point of driving me away from this site.
Loading times for most pages are unbearably slow. So are most animations (like the menu from clicking your username top right).
Many features break badly when Javascript is turned off.
Text field for bio is super small and cannot be rescaled.
Super upvotes have their use but the super downvote just encourages harsh voting behaviour.
The contrast on the collapse comment button is minimal, same for a number of other places.
Basic features take much effort to navigate to. Going to all posts either means two clicks (hamburger menu then all posts) or clicking a link that can not always be seen without scrolling (which is a mess because the page height will change when recent comments have finished loading)
My sense is you might get more of the experience you want using ea.greaterwrong.com, which doesn’t require javascript, is focused on speed, and generally has a lot of custom options. The site has all identical content.
