   @zachleat You mean not only have they not noticed that their tech is fundamentally broken and often spitting out low quality content, but they also haven't noticed the medium they're talking about it on is also fundamentally broken and often spitting out low quality content?

   Shocking.

   @zachleat honest question, do you think React is “bad” for everything on the web or mostly for sites that could be pure HTML/CSS? 😊

      @nikolajnyboe Independent of long-term long-standing technical concerns (re: https://www.zachleat.com/web/react-criticism/), I think more grievously that they have not been sufficiently good stewards of the power granted by their popularity.
