That's the problem, though: The web has steadily been growing more convenient/friendly for developers, while steadily growing more hostile for users.
All these javascript "advances" just make it easier for people to e.g. mine monero on my system without my consent and enable mediocre web developers to load up previously quick-loading sites with custom scrolling animations, autoplay video, and malvertising.
I'm sure it's in better shape for you, a web developer. It's objectively worse for me, a user.

These advances also make it possible to have the user experiences of sites like spotify, netflix, soundcloud, etc. There's a lot of bad stuff but there is also a lot of good.
