At the moment, this is what Interpersonal.SE looks like for a user who doesn't have an account and just followed a link from Google: Now, I'm a frequent user of this site and I know that it isn't supposed to look like that. I get the joke and I'm OK with it, especially now, when it's relativel...

In light of the recent site redesigns, I was amazed at how much I liked the design of this year's April Fools prank. It looks so bad that it is hilariously awesome. A lot of questions have been posted recently about people wanting to be able to completely turn it off (even when it will be removed...

Over the years, users have told us that Stack Overflow is an indispensable tool for coders all around the world. Programmers know that when they get a Stack Overflow search result, it's likely the search is over. Following that link almost always gets a step closer to understanding whatever progr...

I noticed how Stackoverflow works in linux. I say this is unbelievable. Windows 98 should be the only supported OS.

im a fairly new web designer and would like to blog while practicing my design skills. Heavy user of marquee and gifs on my site. Which platform would be better for it? Im betting on tripod though over geocities. all inputs welcome

Your website has a claim below Unfortunately is not true your site does not load very well at all in netscape 3.0 in fact a number of links do not appear to be working, nor does the awesome mouse trailer. On the other hand if I load it your site with Lynx it looks much better and everything a...

Yesterday, I had the the whole unicorn in my background. A few hours later ( after the 'back to the future' button bug fixed seems to me) I lost its head. A few hours after it was the second half's turn. Where is it now? I was able to make come back the 'second half' by zooming out a lot, but ne...

It's the 1990s, Tables are all the rage for alignment control. Yet I see a disturbing lack of tables uses. This new fangled CSS is just a fad and will never work, no good programmer will want to externalize their design and logic from the webpage. How can this website ever make a nice profession...

Right side green-line is missing in stackoverflow question in April Fools' design. Please check the below screenshot for the same While in meta stackoverflow the green line is available Please check the below screenshot for the same

Sorry to say so, but "Timetravel" is only funny once. Now, how to get rid of "Timetravel" permanently on every SO site? Can't find a setting or so. Note: What about, if you disabled javascript with "NoScript" or the like? With it on, I can not even get rid of it on the current site.

When my friend shouted "UNICORNS" when I told him about the cool new April Fool's styling, I didn't understand why he said that. Since unicorns are such magical creatures it'd be very rare to spot one in the wild. Especially for those people who have disabled the sidebar from the user options ...

Wikipedia notes in the page on April Fools' Day that A study in the 1950s, by folklorists Iona and Peter Opie, found that in the UK, and in countries whose traditions derived from the UK, the joking ceased at midday. This continues to be the current practice with the holiday ceasing at noon, ...

I genuinely like time-machine more than "modern" design. Would it be possible to keep that design as option in the future as well?

This amazing reto theme from 90's. How can it work on Android and Iphone which didnt exist in 90's !! Is this a stack overflowing or Y2K bug/leak?

I think by now almost everyone using the site has already seen the fake "90's style" redesign that was created as an April Fool joke. Many words were already spent discussing about it. From people stating it was poorly tested to people arguing that we should only prank logged-in users to people ...

Back in August 2018 I commented on a post about the 90's-esque link underlines that had recently been introduced on SE. Of course, in my mind, this comment did actually inspire the SE April Fools theme of 2019 1. I have already had my tombstone carved and will be retiring from the internet to...

I have a confession: When I look up a question on Stack Overflow, it's often not for fun. It's for work, and I'm probably already slightly miffed cause something didn't work, and I probably don't want somebody else's sense of humor thrust on me. I don't like this year's April Fool's joke. It's j...
