   @jk Remember when web pages were two files, at most? One .html and, if the developer was particularly keen on things, one .css? And, together, those files rarely exceeded a few MB?

   Pepperidge Farm remembers, and so do we.

     firefox is like windows nowadays, where youre constantly having to disable new fucked up shit they've just introduced. like some kind of spying or a peggle extreme advert or something. what a scam. anyone who tells you its a 'good' browser at this stage is kind of a mark imo

     every new and successively more inane javascript framework that came out in the last 15 years was another salvo for google's embrace-extend strategy to "make the web so Fucked Up that the task of creating a browser with less than 30 million lines of code becomes impossible", and you all fell for it! maybe like 9 web developers pushed back against the 25,000 monthly blog posts extolling the virtues of yet another new way to do something on a computer which they had already solved at xerox in 1977
