I've seen this before in various forms: * Don't use PHP its a fractal of bad design - most popular server side language before * Don't use JavaScript its a scripting language - most popular programming language * Don't use Flash its bad for security and accessiblity - most popular authoring tool for animated web apps. * Don't use WordPress its a spaghetti mess - most popular CMS * Don't use VB6! - most popular rapid application development tool The most popular techs are the most practical and easy-to-use ones. Im not dismissing the arguments. The "dont use" arguments are valid. HOWEVER, you can't just tell people to "do the world a favor and don't use this tech because". That doesn't work. Unless you can release a competing tech that does better, with less amount of work.
