This was an oddly defensive and vapid comment. Mostly just handwaving away any views the article brings up, of which at least the article expands on their thoughts. This comment is just "meh not a bad thing" repeatedly. Why is thi

The light framework you're referencing is Lit or Shoelace. Also web components have taken off, just in the enterprise space where most teams are going to be using whatever they prefer whether that's Svelte or React or Vue or Angul

Android has far more users both globally and in the US specifically, and the Play Store has triple the amount of downloads that the App Store has. This gives it far less lenience than Apple got in the EU, where it isn't even as dominan

All retailers do that. It's called private labels. None of the products are made by the retailer either. As unfortunate to those who might genuinely believe Trader Joes products are unique to them, or that Great Value was Walmart using

You don't see how large companies with vast resources are going to protect their copyright? You really believe that ByteDance et al. are going to make their data freely and publicly available for everyone? This is a way to permanently

This is the larger problem with discussions on privacy. Anti privacy articles are often very emotionally charged “Apple REFUSES to unlock killers iPhone”, and pro-privacy ones are more neutral like “Why end to end encryption is important”.

If you find the language rigorous, a web framework can't magically do away with that. It's genuinely illogical to believe so. There are plenty of web frameworks on Rust that are quite nice to use, but they are still Rust, with all

They aren't entirely different issues at all and are quite tightly interwoven. It doesn't matter how many ms you shave off by using/not using react when your page loads a full screen video ad and has 50MB of trackers to aid i

Vast majority of the web's downfalls stem from advertising and tracking. Unless you're proposing a way to remove advertising, then the problems will remain no matter what tech the developers opted for.

I agree on building to learn, but disagree on the massive leg-up. It's like believing that using a template off GitHub is going to teach you much (outside of specific use cases). This is also why a lot of GitHub issues now submitted by

It was never normal or profitable to advertise without personal information online. One of the first selling points to companies making the transition digitally was because things could get so much more personalized than just seeing a basic

They do use personal information, and YouTube provides creators (and their ad partners) with a lot of personal information. It makes it very easy for a company to note what channels have fanbases that are for eg. 18-24 year old straight mal

All good skeptical points, and unfortunately, there isn't a single good study on social media use and teens (that also doesn't completely ignore parents/environments). So we'll never know for the time being! Unfortunate
