- drBonkers 4y agoWhat would be necessary to cut JS out of the picture and use a technology like web assembly exclusively instead? Please excuse my naivety.
- HWR_14 4y agoI don't care about the frameworks. I hate JavaScript because it is a security (unintentionally, and therefore intermittently) and privacy (intentionally, and therefore constantly growing) problem. And because it's necessary for more and more pages that work fine (the exact same way) with HTML and CSS alone.
