How the BBC News website has changed over the past 20 years

  One of the things I really like about the BBC website is that all the old articles keep their original formatting. It's actually quite fascinating how much of their old content still works, especially the interactive parts.

    The interesting thing to note about that is, it suggests they have always used static site generation.

      Yes and no, it’s common that when migrating to a new stack in order to not break older pages they are converted to static pages. They probably weren’t static at the time.

        Good point, thank you.

  More emphasis on video. Which I hate. But that's not even an internet problem. People can't read or concentrate. Apart from that god save the BBC. One of the few news outlets that try not to cater to a bubble.
