When people say that they're "updating" the look of something, what they usually mean in practice is making it more in line with current fashions. If the old look was classic, this actually a step backward.

If true, why does HN have an API? What signal would be convince you that sophisticated users aren't that thrilled with the spartan HN UI? (genuine Q.) Would a growing adoption of 20+ alternate frontends, e.g. http://hnpremii.com , be a strong signal? https://hackerbits.com/hacker-news/improve-hacker-news-ui/ …
To save the server from the load of being scraped. If the frontends were better, there wouldn't be 20+ of them, there would be 1.

Wait a sec - HN's API is not complete - it offers no write-access... I love HN so I am working on a free & open-sourced iOS app for it. And I can't implement upvoting/replies/posting without using an HN scraping library.
