It's worth flagging that the homepage and the docs are both nearly unreadable on mobile. If you're going to have cheeky rhetoric like "no crumbs" please take the time to actually test the pages your LLM made for you in a bunch of different ways.

Reads fine for me. I’m getting a bit worn out with the number of ‘if you’re going to use an LLM then take the time to …’ posts. I’ve looked at plenty of HN submissions that don’t render at all on mobile and yes I found it frustrating but didn’t just attribute it to an LLM.

They're nearly unreadable on desktop, too. The prose is incomprehensibly jargon-heavy, I literally have no idea what it's talking about.

    I feel the same. I have no idea what “CDP” and “WAF” means in this context.

    I feel awkward about all this probably-LLM-generated prose that does not respect me enough as a reader to explain acronyms and give context.

    hate to tag along on this take but i agree

    "...browser automation framework..." was about all i understood

    and even then it had me guessing if it was talking about an alternative e2e testing framework like cypress, selenium, playwright.....and somehow I was right lmao (i think?)

    but literally all the other jargon there had me stumped. I'm still afraid to google

      a getParameter(0x9245) probe

    Likewise, the text does come across to me as LLM heavy (with a spice of pizzazz), but even as a dev who uses playwright I doubt I would change after seeing this.

    To OP: not convincing enough.

    Maybe this is targeted towards super users who are deep in the weeds of various browser automation framework internals.

    A better marketing approach towards someone like me who just uses this to test my apps e2e and be done with it, would be to have simple cliches like:

      "10x faster than playwright", 
  
  "Same API", 
  
  "Did we mention....SUPER FAST!?"

    I might call bs on that, but I'd be more likely to try it out.
