Kind of a minor point, but as it's implemented on the character sheet, the warlock's eldritch invocation of Devil's Sight is marked as 120 ft. darkvision. Given that Devil's Sight is entirely distinct from Darkvision (makes darkness appear like bright light), would it be possible to mark it as such?
I've brought this up a few times but despite DDB's insistence in other areas of the character sheet display that they follow WotC rules 100% and won't implement something that doesn't follow those rules, they still haven't addressed this after, gosh, it's gotta be two years now since I first brought it up? Others have too but apparently the distinction just isn't something they're interested in fixing.

I mean, I don't think it breaks anyone's game to mix up Devil's Sight with Darkvision, and it only affects warlocks, so it makes sense that it's not high on the priority list.
There are probably a few other small details that they have gotten wrong (the Basic rules don't seem to have the Forest Gnome race... unless this has finally been corrected?) but overall they prove to be quite the D&D aid site.
Maybe it was the Player's Handbook?... I remember them not being there when I tried to make a character once.
This website is not owned by the same company that publishes D&D. This website is more like an online store that only sells digital copies of D&D books, and all the other stuff like the Character Sheet they have provided for everyone in the world to use free of charge.
The company that publishes D&D, WotC, has put out some products for free use by everyone, including the "Basic Rules" and another product called the Elemental Evil Players' Companion (EEPC). The main rule book for D&D is called the Player's Handbook (PHB). The free Basic Rules include the actual game rules from the PHB, and all of the races and classes from that book, but only 1 subrace for each (for Gnomes it is the Rock Gnomes) and subclass for each, only 1 of the feats, some of the backgrounds, and only about half of the spells. The EEPC includes the other free access spells and subraces (like the Deep Gnomes).
That’s why we only have access to the limited selection of subraces if we don’t buy anything else.
This website, and it's parent company, are only allowed to provide free access to those products that WotC has given out for free. If they provide free access to any other materials (like the PHB), then they would have to pay WotC for it by copy. Since there would be no physical copies to actually count, and since there are over 7 billion people on the planet, they would be bankrupt and we wouldn't have this useful website to use.
So what you're seeing is all of that free content that WotC published all consolidated together for ease of access. If we want access to the other subclasses, subraces, backgrounds, feats, and spells from the actual PHB, we need to purchase the digital version of that book specifically from this website. The same goes for our ability to access the information contained in all of the other books that WotC has published for D&D. There are a whole bunch of books for D&D, each with different content.

I mean, Wizards' Basic Rules doesn't have any gnomes at all.
