What a designer would still polish
- 1
Let decoration play once about 10 min
Animations that loop forever pull the eye away from what you want read. Loop only what is truly live.
What's working
- None of the AI-era patterns we can prove. That already puts you ahead of about half of 2026 launch pages.
- Your own typeface (sohne-var). It does more for your identity than most people realise.
- Real, large imagery rather than icons and gradients alone.
What we found
- Nothing confirmed on this page.
Motion 1 flagged
New. We watch the page move, hover its cards and turn on the visitor's reduce-motion setting. None of these count toward the grade yet. Two held up in a first hand check (stock timing and ignoring reduce motion); they join the grade once they hold up on a bigger set.
- 1
M1Never-ending loops Not graded · Flagged
Running forever: script-driven motion ×1.
Fix: Let decoration play once, or tie it to something the visitor did. Keep loops for real live status only.
- 3
M2Content stuck invisible Measured · Flagged
3 blocks of text never appeared, even after scrolling the whole page.
Fix: Never hide content until a script runs. Start visible and animate from there, or drop the entrance.
- 10
M3Animations that move the layout Measured · Flagged
10 elements animate width, height, position or spacing, which makes the browser redo the layout every frame.
Fix: Animate transform and opacity instead.
- 2
Everything fades in on scroll Not graded · Fine
2 blocks of text start invisible and fade in as you scroll.
- 0%
Default animation timing Not graded · Fine
0 of 788 animated elements use the framework's stock curve and speed.
- 0/8
Bounce on hover Not graded · Fine
0 of 8 cards and buttons we hovered lift, grow or overshoot.
- 0
Ignores 'reduce motion' Not graded · Fine
Loops stop when the visitor asks for less motion.
- 0.00
Page jumps while loading Not graded · Fine
Layout shift score 0.00. Google treats above 0.10 as poor.
On a phone
- no
Scrolls sideways on a phone Not graded · Fine
Fits a 390px phone.
- 0
Tap targets too small Measured · Fine
0 buttons or links are smaller than 24px and sit too close to the next one (WCAG 2.2 target size).
- 0
Text too small to read Measured · Fine
0 runs of body text are under 12px on a phone.

Worth a look
Less reliable on whole pages, so they don't count toward the grade.
- The Unchosen Gradient Indigo-to-violet gradient on the hero and the primary button, chosen by nobody.
- Gradient Text Headline The H1 or a big stat is painted with a gradient via background-clip: text.
- Contrast Below The Floor Text whose colour is too close to its background to meet WCAG AA.

Slop Patterns is made by Pavithra Lamahewa at Precious Studio. The grade weighs each AI-era pattern by how much it rose on 4,725 Show HN launch pages, from 2016–19 to 2026 (The Same Page). A pattern counts only when we can point at it on the page. Broken basics and motion are shown but not graded. Scanned 2026-09-27 with detector 1.1.1. Method and library.
