SPAs Were a Mistake

I agree. These people hating on SPAs are mostly not frontend developers. They're backend devs that think returning an HTML page is all you need to do. Modern websites are very complex.

Or users who hate watching a whole application load to display some text.

If the only purpose of your site is to load some text or an image, go use a framework with SSG like NextJS. Then you get fast websites without having to pretend that writing stateful updates (e.g. jQuery) to the DOM is fun.
