Why does code always look better in Gitlab/GitHub than in my editor?

2 pointsby pachico9 days ago
No matter how much I fine-tune my editor (these days I only use VSCode), code always feels more pleasant and polished when I see it in GitLab or GitHub compared to inside the editor itself.<p>I&#x27;ve tried different themes, fonts, colours, even tried to mimic the same look as the web UI (after all, VSCode is also Electron-based!), but I still get the same impression: code looks cleaner and somehow more readable in the browser.<p>Has anyone else experienced this?
