How is this different from somebody demanding that Microsoft refuse to allow any app to run on Windows if it only works via a GUI and not also on the DOS CLI?

How is this different from somebody demanding that Microsoft refuse to allow any app to run on Windows if it only works via a GUI and not also on the DOS CLI? The purpose of websites is to provide information and functionality to humans. It's up to publishers and developers to decide how to deliver their work in a way that is accessible to their chosen audience. It's already a high bar for people to write content and build apps. The higher you raise the bar, the less content and functionality will be available to all of us. Also, many people who write content are not developers, and will simply publish their writing where it's easiest for them to do so. Are they now required to audit all the publishing platforms available to them, to see whether or not their content will be allowed on HackerNews? How are they meant to learn how to do that? And what about web-apps that are not just text content, but rich apps and games that could never possibly work via text alone. Are they now not allowed to be viewed by anyone via HN? Overall, this idea is impractical but also reeks of a sense of entitlement. We should show gratitude and encouragement to anyone who makes the effort to produce content or functionality for us to read and use, not punish people for failing to cater exactly to our narrow preferences.
