Fun that we both used simonw as the "competitor", and both of our more minimalistic websites won over him! :)

So the obvious next step is to pit them against each other, seems your "premium, editorial feel" won out!

> bemben.co.uk wins due to its sophisticated use of typography and a cohesive dark-mode aesthetic that creates a premium, editorial feel. While emsh.cat is functional and clean, it lacks the intentional visual hierarchy and character found in the layout of bemben.co.uk.

I love it saying typography being sophisticated - I have two fonts, one font being from indieground.net!
