Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Who’s the Fairest of Them All?

What do all of you think is the prettiest online judge out there?

My vote goes to oj.uz, with Atcoder coming a close second

(Sorry, codeforces. You're just not aesthetically pleasing enough)

CMS is the prettiest to me (though it is not an actual online judge, but a contest platform).

Only Codeforces allows beautiful user photos. Having my photo of Albert Gural... it is the prettiest!

    Agreed. It's a pleasure to watch that progress bar that shows tests.

CSES has classical beauty, it shows what the Internet looked like in 1995 (however, a new layout will be released soon, stay tuned).

    CSES is definitely the simplest and cleanest online judge I've seen

    To me the dark blue background and the white login screen remind me of when I first discovered you could change google chrome's theme when I was about 12 years old

I just tried oj.uz To my suprise I did not found a way to upload any code. I have to copy/paste my solution into that available text area.

Is this intentional?

Maybe cf is not the fanciest one, but aesthetically it's great in its minimalistic design and it is very easy to navigate what often proves to be hard to combine (hello topcoder). The prettiest one I used is probably Kattis, it's fine to use as well.

CS Academy and Kattis looks like it was made by human with eyes. I can not say it about the rest.
