Style: reduce horizontal scroll, element borders
All pages should now look good on screens 230px wide (DPR=1), inc. most feature-phones running e.g. KaiOS. Add borders to images so they look distinct from the surrounding page.

Perhaps the biggest benefit to abandoning the "move fast and break things" mindset is that in addition to making it hard to rapidly improve a service, abandoning the mindset also makes it hard to rapidly worsen a service.

Both of the prior two case studies--Mozilla and Signal--are examples of well-meaning organizations unintentionally leaving users vulnerable to user domestication. The former represents a lack of simplicity but the presence of an open platform. The latter represents a closed platform with a higher degree of simplicity. Intent isn't in the picture when examining the three steps and countermeasures to user domestication.

> I feel like there's some tension between simplicity and open platforms; to take Signal, in a way it's simple precisely because it's a de-facto-closed platform, or at least so Moxie has argued. In turn, Matrix is superficially simple, but the protocol is actually (imho) fairly complex exactly because it's an open platform.
