Whatever. It's fine as long as they don't get upset when we ignore their clearly misguided labeling and hand them a dictionary to look up "brutalism".

I think my definition is better and much more inline with what most users want and how open web standards actually work
Pure HTML sites with no JavaScript are to archaic and web technologies have improved significantly.
A better standard of comparison is current HN mobile and desktop apps, or other popular websites that use large frameworks and obscure their functionality to end users
Beyond this, I made a HN reader for the way I personally browse HN with absolute minimal lines of code and maximal cross platform utility so I can use this on desktop, mobile, my iPad, etc.
I really don’t care that much about adhering to pedantic definitions of brutalism and a lot more about making something that I like using
