I'm always an "It Depends" kind of guy.

I have a personal issue with having a 500KB page load, so a button press can be animated.

Ugh you triggered me.

I hate how most "modern" websites have MEGABYTES of JavaScript. CSS? Pack it in a js bundle with JSX and object literals. Images? Throw them in too, just make it load on demand.

Hell, just put a <div id=root/> there and let js do the rest. It's not like we have browsers and networks and edge nodes optimized to render websites in other ways.


Honestly, your suggestions found just as awful.

Bloated sites need to go. Putting makeup on the pig and it’s still a pig.


I think the suggestions were a joke.

It looks like you guys are both in alignment.

CSS has advanced to a point, where you can add quite a bit of interactive “bling” to a site, with very little code.
