C0D4669026ysubtle changes or obvious changes that done impact the user generally work best.
breaking everything on the other hand -
Fabian10136y@C0D4 Yes. I like the ones of Devrant (pixelated avatars) and Elon Musk (announcement to release a rap music video). There's also usually easter eggs in Google products. Those are the best, when you don't even notice them if you just rush in and quickly do your thing. I would also accept stuff like slightly moving some buttons, to mess up fast users, but that's the most intrusive variant I can accept.

Fabian10136yUpdate: Maybe it's just Minecraft: speedrun.com/mc. But that section is definitely unusable and broken.
speedrun.com completely destroyed itself today.
Apparently they thought it was funny to change all kinds of labels, links, images etc. around for April fool's, so now the site became completely unusable. In a game that I identified as Minecraft by looking at the URL, over 10 moderators were added and minutes later, a 5 minute world record of getting all achievements was verified, which didn't even have a (complete?) video. Context: The previous world record was over an hour. I would check what the correct previous time was, but I can't figure out what any of the labels are supposed to say.
I already wrote them a mail saying that they should revert it as soon as possible, because the site is completely unusable, and that they should consider that there are people who don't like being blocked from doing anything just because it's April again. Hopefully they made a backup recently, because they might as well reset to yesterday's data.
