@jensimmons Front-end javascript frameworks have made most websites intolerable. Basic browser functionality is broken all the time. Everything is slow and brittle. I don't need a single webpage to require 50mb of data.

No one cares about accessibility or speed. All the things we worked so hard on back in the day, out the window. It's just fast delivery of something that's slow and looks like everything else.

However. Modern browsers rule. What you get with HTML, CSS with a little JS is incredible to me. All the little hacks and libraries I had to use in the past, gone!

That means it's still fun to make well-crafted things for yourself.

But the corporate web is cooked.
