Sounds promising, but I can't create an account!

Hi Jasper, that looks very promising! What I miss for it to become useful for me:
What I think could be a problem (and why I really want Figma integration) is that the strings are not shown in context. Let's say we use 'Go' as a call to action in several places and then realize that's not a very good button label. How do we know which ones to change to "Sign up now" and "Send"?
About the commit messages: in my experience people find it difficult to write good commit messages. To be honest, I would also find it difficult to come up with a more useful example than used in the video: 'Demo test' without spending a significant amount of time on commit messages. Perhaps the default message should not be editable? Perhaps the default message could provide context to the developer? Perhaps the default message should have the same pattern that it has already, but authors can add an additional, optional comment that is used in the second line of the commit message?
Hey Mark, because it's already 2 months ago that you asked this and there's nothing specific you're asking for, here a few first impressions:
No :)
If you create a Wikipedia account, you can choose the mobile style as a default. That one is much less cluttered. You can also add custom CSS there so you don’t need that plugin.
I tried to figure out what the design process is at Wikipedia. I still don’t fully understand it, but it involves a lot of consensus building and making little changes. Looks like design by committee, where the committee is hundreds if not thousands of volunteers.
I found the reason for why there’s no max-width applied to the main body text on two discussion pages. A few people didn’t like it for reasons unrelated to legibility (‘I have a huge 21” screen and want to use all of it’—this was several years ago).
Just like in many other projects, the real design challenge is not about the graphic design, but about putting a user-centered design process in place.
I can’t see the image, but going by your description, “pannable canvas” or “endless canvas” perhaps?
Consider that your users may use nightshift/f.lux because they don’t want to look at blue light in the evening. I also found that especially dark blues tend to look very different with those modes enabled. It really becomes greenish, even when you’re used to the white balance shift.
To me they’re all confusing! Perhaps something like ‘12h ago?’

Also, I won't be using it for real without Firefox support :| I believe it's pretty straight forward to port the extension to FF.
