Turns out, in the real world, arbitrary complexity under the hood which is almost completely invisible to the user, is less of a drawback than not having access

Turns out, in the real world, arbitrary complexity under the hood which is almost completely invisible to the user, is less of a drawback than not having access to the largest ecosystem of 3rd party libraries that exist for the platform.
I greatly prefer a project that is willing to reconsider its founding principles than sticking dogmatically to them even when they are being harmful to the project and its users.
- roqi 3y agoYou make a great point. No matter how high the complexity level is, if interfaces and abstractions are trivial to follow and they "just work" then the system is actually simple and trivial. I'm seeing poorly advised commenters in this thread trying to argue that reinventing the wheel is simpler than just using industry standards that are readily available and "just work".
