React Concurrent Mode

I partially blame the availability of large amounts of bandwidth in many portions of the world. We went from having strict data needs, where websites had to be crafted to be quick and clean, to now where just unoptimized and bulky JS litters the landscape.

I miss the old internet some days.

you mean the days when most software had to be manually installed on your Windows? :-)

Yeah, web is not only about documents these days (how it was originally intended) but it is also about running and hosting real-time applications.

But I hear you, people indeed use wrong technology to solve their problems. I agree that there is no need to use any React and Angular to display a document.

Oof I do not miss that! You are 100% correct that tool selection is a major decision in how well a product, app, or website responds. Perhaps we need more of that then?

That's how an app works now. Here is a program to do something external to the browser.
