Too bad they're just static, as the website doesn't copy the hover state or the on-click animations.

I may have missed one by looking at this huge dump, but NONE of the "buttons" I saw there actually looked/felt like a button. Something I can feel that I press it down and it gives proper visual feedback, like a little 3D effect.
I'm old-school. :)

I see a couple that look like buttons to me, like a yellow Donate button and a green Learn More button.
I agree that most of the other ones don’t look very button like to me either. But even so I would probably understand that most of them were buttons when I saw them in context on a page.
The flat style has been around for a while now, so I’ve gotten used to it even though when I started using computers it was on Windows 95 with the grey rectangular buttons with shaded sides that give them the “3d effect”.

I wish there was a way to exclude the plain ones (single color rectangle with rounded corners and text).

I can’t look, so many arrows poorly aligned with text - how can these developers live with themselves!

Is this as easy as calling getComputedStyle on a target element or is there more to it? I love the idea and I want to experiment with automating similar.

It would be interesting if it was possible to sort them by similarity, width, height, shape, color, etc.

Interesting choice to hotlink all the images! The side-effect is that some are dead now.

You should deduplicate and offer a cluster view with similarity distance

It reminds me a bit of the toolbar mania in the nineties :)
this is really great like collecting bottle caps except is buttons
So many different looking buttons. Wish there were more standards.

So this is basically the Thanos of web devs

This is like the late 80s/early 90s cyberspace idea... Imagine you're walking through a 3D ramp and all these buttons are yelling at you from all over the atmosphere... Login here! Start here! Contact us...
