Personally, I'm just sick and tired of modern UI design. Bring back density, put more information on the screen, eliminate the whitespace, use simple (and native!) widgets, get rid of those fucking sticky headers, and so on.

In addition to all the software freedom stuff, and so on. Also, I wish GPL were more popular too.

Yeeees, why do modern websites have so much horizontal whitespace? That 3 column design where 2 are empty. Just... why? Luckily firefox has a reader mode. Makes news websites much more bearable.
