So... I'm a paying customer for Hey since it launched. And frankly, if the experience of the Hey webapp is an example of the best of Hotwire, no fucking thanks.

Maybe that's the developers not adding loading or error states. Maybe it's just a lot of complexity. Maybe it's bugs in Hey. I don't know, but it's not good. In the face of medium-high latency, stuff behaves in an unpredictable/buggy way. Boxes open with no content. Links don't work like you'd hope. Lots of actions in quick succession don't abort in a way I'd find intuitive. It just feels off. As bad as an SPA might be, this is a step away from UI feeling native and natural, in my opinion.
