    I love being able to build my own site that works like a motherfucking website. This example is even simpler, but in general, unless I am actively adding products to a cart, your website shouldn’t do jack but display media. Tired of all this modern web shit that attacks you every time you open a page.

    Looking at you, every news site in existence

      What’s so refreshing about motherfucking website is that I feel no need to activate ”reader mode” just to make the site bearable. Basic HTML is perfect as it is.

        Holy crap, motherfucking website is beast! I love how simple and straight forward it is. Reminds me of the 90s before ad placement took over the entire internet.

        I built my own blog that way. All static generated, no JavaScript, no cookies, just enough CSS to get a nice dark mode look. Loads in 0.3 seconds on a modern connection, or around 10 seconds if you’re on a shitty 2G connection. 370KB load, and about 270KB of that is a picture on a post that could be slimmed down if it used something more modern than jpeg compression.

      Oh my beloved motherfucking website author, I do in fact remember when websites were good, it was about 15 or 20 years ago… Sob (maybe more depending on who you ask)
