conceptually speaking this is my favorite. I just wish you went an extra step like this - really playing at the idea of it being so uninteresting that even the text is faded for example

I get what you're saying, but I actually think that fading out the text might have the opposite effect. People might wonder why it's faded and this could provoke interest. For me, plain black text using a standard sans serif font is the epitome of blah...which is what i was going for. Thank for your comment though...I do appreciate the feedback.

Fading not in the sense of it being animated but just ‘camouflaged’ but you have a good point.
I think its the sharp contrast of the white and black that gets too me that I almost want an eggshell white or dark pewter grey text so that the contrast is not too strong (for me contrast usually implies interest and that subreddit is r/notinteresting). Either way great operational submission!

There was another one that I think I merged into the final thing and overwrote.
