There are some use cases for which SPAs are a huge leap forward, greatly improving the user experience. A lot of modern web applications don't and shouldn't behave like a collection of pages, after all.
A blog is not one of these use cases; it is exactly a collection of pages.
- et-al 9y agoNot to mention, as a SPA, Medium is a total failure. Trying to read a string of comments on Medium results in a bunch of unnecessary clicks and page reloads. I guess it's upping their click count..
- acqq 9y agoI have thought it was intentional, to reduce the number of comments and motivate the writers to write their own real big posts instead. The way I see it, medium doesn't want to be a forum, but to have people write the full articles. Even those who respond.
- et-al 9y agoI can see that. But it's tiresome as a reader.
