Remember The Website Obesity Crisis [1] article from 2015, since then [2] things only got worse, and it is been almost 10 years already, well will be next year.
Is it foolish to say that in 10 more years you wont be able to navigate the web on a circa 2015 PC ? If nothing changes seems like it.
My old macbook from 2013 with latest Firefox is already can not handle loading https://civitai.com https://civitai.com web page with 23.98 MB of JavaScript, it is just hangs for half a minute while trying to render this disaster of web frontend.
It is not just web, mobile all in one apps got so large that 2013 phone the same way unable to load them, and guess what, half of them are written on top of web tech stack, why three comma ,,, budget companies can not afford to write native application ?
