That site is cute, but I don't think anyone would seriously claim YouTube is built with "Vanilla JS" in the sense of not requiring a heavy framework to make changes even if the millions of lines od non-vanilla code (guess) they build off of isn't public. And Reddit certainly isn't anymore.

So that's why the experience on these sites is so shit and I dread clicking any link because it'll make my browser stutter for 5 seconds?
