I really like the animations. Well done.

This one does confuse me though. Why not have the sidebar display permanently instead of hiding it within a drop-down? There already appears to be white space and a column header ("More options...") dedicated to it already. Also, why is the button label pi? It's all just really confusing and feels unintuitive. I imagine some thought went into it though, so I'm curious as to the reasoning behind it.

Other than that one particular case, I like what you've done with the rest.

The sidebar is an index of several additional option pages, shown to the right of it. The first one is "Common" and it is shown by default.

This design didn't actually make it into the production release, it was replaced with https://bvckup2.com/wip/r82-rabbit-hole-x.gif.

Pi is a reference to a (really corny) "hacker" movie from the 90s called The Net. Same thing as the Pi at the bottom right of every page on Reddit.

The replacement makes much more sense to me. Thank you for the explanation.

I'm always on Reddit and never noticed the Pi. Thanks for the trivia as well!
