It would be significantly worse, unless there is a very good reason for that (e.g. some app like Photoshop could work that way). You lose any form of accessibility, inspectability, AdBlocking won't work, in many cases even mouse select

Java EE was/is a whole platform, framework, deployment model all in one. Also, most of the verbosity of that early version was very high flexibility (everything could be replaced) plus an XML-based configuration. I wouldn't really

Clojure was meant to be a guest language, so the more platforms it supports, the merrier. But web and http is definitely not lacking in anything in the JVM world, given that half the business-critical backends of the internet runs on it.

Without entering the territory of flamewars, Go is objectively more verbose than Java, so I don't really see your point.

Java is definitely not even close to being "highly expressive". It has been a very simple language, and was always very conscious of remaining that with a slow, but well-thought-out evolution, learning from others' mistakes.

How does a less expressive language help with any of these? Also, I very much don't share your opinion based on experience, unless we are talking about straight up frameworks and not libraries.

Then every significant (you can get away a lot with very tiny js and/or css, like menus) user interaction will necessarily cause a server round-trip, which is definitely perceptible by humans, no matter how fast your internet is - so i

Which (correctly) doesn't even have react listed, only frameworks that (may) use react as a library. So at least be specific what is problematic, is it a particular framework, a particular library, the whole idea behind react (v=f(s)

E-commerce sites are a pretty good fit for SPAs. Sounds like a bad rewrite, nothing more, nothing less.

So now you have two, entirely separate worlds that don't compose in any way, and you have to create "DTO"s to convert from one to the other and back. Don't get me wrong, I would much prefer coding in a single language fo

Which react sites? Are you sure you are not a victim of confirmation bias? How often do you check what framework does a smooth and performance website uses? Because demo sites are snappy on even low-end devices. It's not react itself

That assumes that the bottleneck is JS parsing/execution. The browser itself is not single-threaded and can load/parse resources in parallel. And I don't buy that most websites would have react as the bottleneck, over the m
