Hah, maybe a middle ground vs gopher. The GDPR mitigation from NPR (https://text.npr.org/ https://text.npr.org/) was refreshing. The amount of effort for display capabilities above and beyond moving around plain old text + some markup for layout has been totally out of proportion to the end-user value. I kind of wonder things like, "I wonder how much the memory/cpu it takes to run Slack (just on my laptop) vs total at NASA to design and managed the Apollo 11 mission". Anyway, that's OT enough. It's just that this is such a ridiculous vector that it's irritating.
