True, but you can still get a ton of mileage from a simple managed web hosting solution and (if you feel fancy) cloudfront. My point is that this whole post reeks a bit of YAGNI. Or, at least, that we're not talking about "simple

Web apps. You don't know how to create web apps. An actual website (meaning text, images and little more) doesn't really need all the fancy frameworks OP's talking about. The sooner we re-learn this, the better.

In part I agree, but then again, it can become a problem à-la windows security prompt, where people have learned to basically ignore it and give permission to mostly anything. In other words, in my opinion, don't cry wolf unless there&

In my book, flagging as malware something that is not malware is lying, or at least a false positive. So, spoiler: it's a bit more nuanced than "yes" or "no".

A bit off topic but why did you have to fill my browser history while I scroll through a page? I don't know if this is happening only to my browser (Firefox nightly on Android) but it's very annoying.
