someone linked me a website once that talked about a *movement* towards simpler websites

brutalism? or something

"movement"

lol

just make simple website good again

lazy developers are mostly what cause bloaty websites

developers use bloaty, lazy templated "modern" websites these days

Wix lol

Squarespace?

Being an actual developer, things like boostrap and angular make me unhappy

SQUARESPACE, for when you are too much of a square to design your own website

It has a purpose, but I don't like it

People who don't want to learn and to pay for a developer are the main customers

and that's not bad

but for people who have the skills, it's stupid

are the squarespace and/or wix websites bloated?

well most visually are

What's wrong with a regular page that scrolls anyway? 😧

They are visually and the code is bloaty as well

Bloated websites full of js really screw with retarded computers like mine

had a website the other (from bethesda) that would just reopen itself every second

no wonder the laptop got hot

lel

I did that once

for fun

html sites at the time weren't the most beautiful looking ones

but then everything became blank white sites

like people forget there is an actual light behind screens blaring into your face

lel

Dark is always the best for website styles

doesnt have to be black, but reasonable grey is already much better

I prefer dark gray and black

I remember everquest had this site that would nearly crash your computer

Because some dumb elven girl had a staff that sparkled at the tip.

Oh boy. Sparkles.

That was worth it.
