Nice work, it's lightweight and fast to load. A few notes after using it for a bit...

1. There's far too much white space and unnecessarily large headers. Reading content in cafes seems to be the heart of the site, however, this is what I see when opening a cafe on my 1920x1080 monitor - https://i.imgur.com/1j0exRM.png. There's literally not a single piece of content for a returning user to read without scrolling.

2. Something weird is happening with post times. I saw a comment that was posted -666 seconds ago, which snapped to 3 minutes ago after refreshing.

3. The background color is too light and it blends with the discussions, making it difficult to visually separate them. Here is the existing background - https://i.imgur.com/wVr0RYs.png and a darker one to add more structure - https://i.imgur.com/U5sekNI.png.

4. Overall I find the content a little hard to read. I prefer sites with discussion titles (Reddit/HN/forums) as they help to summarize an entire post or image in a few words. Without them I need to spend too much time reading each discussion trying to parse what it's about and if it's relevant to my interests.

Thanks this all helps a lot. I am adding it to my feedback document and I will make some changes. The time thing sounds like the JS failed to connect for a second to the backend endpoint, thats what tells the site what the timestamp is now for it to calculate times.
