If you go to lemmy.ml it’s just a bunch of fucking redditors with their dogshit memes and like three lemme users. It’s sad. I strongly encourage users of this site who are so inclined to take a break from infighting to bully neoliberals over there.

Wahh! The way that the javascript populates the page with new posts and there being so many more users makes the page seem to jump to me and makes my eyes twitch! I hate XMLHttp request and think it was a mistake.

I didn’t have that issue, guess I just got lucky because I’ve seen that here on Hexbear and it’s annoying.

JavaScript and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

The fact that the creator of node.js made a half hour apology speech at a JavaScript conference 4 years ago is really funny, but also sad

I maintain a few web apps as a hobby. Design principle #1 in all of them is “does this work 100% in a default-settings Tor browser?”, which means no javascript. It’s amazing what one can do with plain old URL query parameters.
