On a bad connection, I'd pick a react SPA with a slow upstart over a classic server-side rendered one any day all things being equal.

With the react app there's a chance I'll have the js already cached and I'm only fetching the data. With the SSR I'll probably be fetching data and view continuously.

Nonsense. You haven’t experienced a slow connection recently, or you’re just loading the same sites over and over again.

People keep asserting it’s impossible to do all of the stuff we were doing on a daily basis in 2012, without the magic of megabytes of client-side code.

That's right, I am loading the same sites again every day consuming different data. Both for work and fun. That was the whole point.

Please don't be a jerk in comments here. I'm sure you can make your substantive points without that.
