Nokia’s legendary font makes for a great user interface font

You can also just click the thumbnails and it shows the full sized image in a modal. I assume everyone here blocks javascript by default and would never know that.

And now the thread will be entirely dominated by pedantic complaints about the site's implementation, per HN tradition.

If I do that on the first screenshot it shows up even tinier than it was before for some reason

It didn't for me, idk what your problem is.

It's not doing that for me on mobile, either, both Firefox and Chrome are giving me miniscule images when I tap on them. Switching to landscape didn't help either, where is usually might.

Same for me, Firefox/Android.

Pack it up, guys. It work on this guys machine…

That does not really help, as demonstrated: https://ctrlv.link/x9Ov

Sites just shouldn't disable zooming, it's one meta tag. The browsers shouldn't offer this option at all. There are no legitimate reasons to disable zooming.

I am sure there are legitimate reasons to disable zooming. I do not like it either, of course, but off the top of my head:

- Websites relying on pixel-perfect layouts that do not gracefully adapt when zoomed

- Input Errors on touch devices

- Branding and aesthetics

- Embedded devices where a site is running in a controlled environment where zooming serves no practical purposes and disabling zooming prevents tampering, misuse, accidental UI scaling that disrupts normal operations

- Fixed-scale graphics or games where zooming distorts aspect ratios, crop controls, or even break gameplay mechanics
