Comment on 4chan switches to HTML5/CSS3 (SFW)

HTML5 but the same old UI? What benefits it brings?

> What benefits it brings?

Much better behavior on smaller width (e.g. mobile phones), smaller, simpler markup (so faster downloading, parsing & rendering), and likely increased simplicity for extension developers.

Read the post and you'll see. Faster parsing, new features etc.

Also, if they changed the old UI, the denizens of 4chan would kill them.
