PostHog.com has redesigned its website to function like an operating system inside a browser, allowing users to multitask with window snapping, keyboard shortcuts, and interactive elements.

Why it matters: This approach helps users manage multiple pages simultaneously without overwhelming tab clutter.

The big picture: The site blends nostalgia for 90s desktop interfaces with modern web technologies like JSON-driven content and theming.

The stakes: Users may find the OS-like interface unfamiliar or less performant compared to traditional static sites, impacting usability.

Commenters say: Reactions mix appreciation for creativity and nostalgia with concerns about performance, complexity, and whether users will adopt this interface style.
