This should be fixed by now ; see :

Ah, good. And without creating usability problems

Which settings would you recommend?

Hm, my knowledge of JS debug tools is rather cursory ... so I couldn't try it in-browser, but maybe 
somewhere between 400 and 600ms would be better than a whole second..?

While I visited the page again, I noticed two more things btw:
* clicking Discover it breaks the back button in Firefox (big no)

* the slides carousel never stops – which is slightly annoying, it would seem better to me if it 
stopped after getting back to the first slide (just personal opinion)

That would impact significantly the layout. I'll have a more precise look into it. 

Not sure, but since some slides's text cuts into the download button on smaller screens even now, 
maybe you'll have to adjust font size either way.


Do you have a rough estimate of proportion / types of config where it's ugly ? 
Looks rather ok on all the ones I checked (including Windows machines)

Haven't checked on Windows machines, I am personally using OpenSuse with freetype-infinality and 
hinting setting "none"... I've attached part of a screenshot, hope the list lets this through.
If you can see it, you'll notice the RE and the C, as well as the OW seem to jump around quite a 
bit.

Thanks for listening :),

Astron.
