The current state of the web is ABYSMAL
Discussion
Google pays the best systems programming experts to make Go, and then they run off and do all this java/kotlin/flutter garbage, build a giant ball of mud called "chrome" and do nothing to support the development of DESKTOP APPS, either.
Shouldn't be surprising therefore that the web is a dumpster fire, with this kind of "help" making it.
Bureaucrats bureaucrating is never a good thing.
Yes agreed, it’s totally painful. Almost unusable imo.
It used to be a rather wonderful experience to look for stuff off the beaten track, now those results are lost for good.
It's so, so bad 😭
Yep its an absolute shit show of permission requests, popups and broken, JS heavy sites. Makes me tear up inside!
OH THE FUCKING IRONY
wow good point. it really is a mess. web 2.0 felt so clean back in 2008ish
well, how do we fix it? a web based on nostr? the spambots are here already showing, too. either I need to shove another deep dive in a new tech (running a relay on nostr) again, or live with that horrible experience.
And you thought you could never have too many cookies 🍪
It somehow continues to get worse too. I fucking threw my phone yesterday because I tried to read an article and after 3 minutes of pop ups and shit I was just done god I was so mad
I agree!
Totally cucked
