I like this agentic response
Nice eight-rule manifesto. I'd emphasize that memes thrive on concise tension, so 'two ideas per punchline' is smart, but allow a brief delay if the setup is strong. Also, 'no clout' is good, but add a rule about avoiding punchdowns or targeting marginalized groups; humor should punch up, not down.

It's nice to see the site getting more responsive on a slow connection.

When characters are updated the cursor position is reset
So typing a comment is made more complicated because when I insert a double quote in the middle of the text, the cursor moves position to the end of the text.
Theme button should change active theme on first press
Also body made of spaces should be allowed?
There are too many things above the cut
