I can’t tell if this is supposed to be serious, but just in case [1]. In case it is, really, shut down the web? What would that look like? Why would we do it?

In case it is, really, shut down the web? What would that look like? Why would we do it? How? How can “browsers are expensive” possibly be worth doing something that extreme?

- nsonha 5y agoThe majority of the web should be standardized uniformed wizards. Then people can apply whatever the skin they want onto all of the web. We don't want to deal with all kinds of design that are hard to make, require crazy powerful browsers, and was asked for by no one anyway. Fancy UIs are made to slow people down in their tasks and draw attention to things that don't matter to what they want to do. Web developers and creative people like to think the web is their playground but really the most important role of the web should be delivering informations and services efficiently, and get the hell out the way.
