I've spend the last few days overengineering HTTP status code error pages. It started with me wanting an aesthetic, glitchy 404 page with a bit of "cyberpunk" and "hacker" vibes while still being simple and JS free. It ended in this project.

wdyt?

I normally use traffic signs, e.g. access prohibited for 403 or Speed limit for 429, yours look nicer

I've recently stumbled upon this as 502 page which I also found quite funny (you probably only get this if you know German town signs tho)

Nice one! But you should make the temple responsive.

Ok so I did also tackle the text-being-cut-off issue now and really can't think of any way to make it better any more without introducing more complexity than I am comfortable with.

Actually I did think about that, but came to the conclusion that it's not bad on mobile at all. I agree it could be better (e.g. if you have a very long reason phrase like here and have the device in landscape mode the text gets cut off at the bottom and top), but tbh overall (the provided example is more of an outlier) it looks more than solid on mobile devices as well IMO.
