This woman is part of the problem of the current internet. There are only a few sites that make sense to only work with JS enabled and federated social media is NOT one of those. Wanna know why? Because all the JS bullshit is just to make shit "pretty". The data isn't - rather, should NOT - reside entirely in the JS.

EDIT - To make matters worse, the site in question is this - https://bestestmotherfucking.website/ ; which is "inspired" by Motherfucking Website and Better Fucking Website. I'm thinking this is just trolling and we fell for it

To make it "pretty"? That's more CSS I would say, and JS would be more about UX.

Which I haven't seen anybody here mention. Which is kinda giving antisocial nerds with hobby projects? I mean, in professional development you learn very quickly how ux is correlated to helpdesk tickets.

Like, we can talk about technical purity excercises all day, but code doesn't exist for its own sake.
