Checking it for the first time now. It is horrible, chaotic.

For real. It wastes too much space with useless info (% in universe, physical state) and buries or sometimes straight doesn't even include basic chemistry-related information like nuclei radius and electronic configuration.

Periodic tables were literally designed to be as straightforward as possible and this site decided to follow through the opposite.

I suppose it's only famous because it's easy as shit to type and hit enter (ptable)

It used to be really good, but they just kept on cluttering it over the years

It’s a shame what happened to it

Exactly. Horrible design, also the one in this post is exactly the same.

Just checking it out for the first time too. It is somewhere between horrible and godly.

Depending on which side of a god you're on, it could be great or horrible. Godly nonetheless.

Neyet! All my classmates use ptable. I hate the interface though personally. Pubchem is where it at.

It's silly how it only shows the state for a brief time while changing the temperatures.

I got some sweet swag for supporting that site, like a giant periodic table poster that I had framed, and a tiny wallet-sized one which has got to be the nerdiest thing ever to keep in your pocket!!

I was just about to say! This website was the most used for me in my undergraduate degree

It's just too cluttered, but the information in there is golden!
