What’s your issue with the HR tag?

Did it cause any problems in readability for you?

You used a series of underscores to separate the Parler messages. But how many underscores does it take to make a line all across the page? You don't know because you don't know the resolution of the user's screen. The line will underscan on some screens (not be long enough), look ok on some screens (be the right length) and over scan (be too long) on others.

Using the hr tag solves this issue. For example, look at the dividing line between each post, put there by using this tag: <hr noshade="1" size="1">   Much simpler than trying to guess how many underscores to use.
