Reading breaking changes in a JavaScript framework’s release notes and thinking about all of the web components I published that will just keep working without any upstream third-party maintenance burden.

Web components pay dividends.

@zachleat Sometimes I just think about all the effort that goes into building and maintaining these frameworks, and how things would look if just a fraction of that would've been put towards contributing to web standards.

@zachleat this is not the kind of hateful propaganda I expected when I subscribed to zachleat dot corn oh wait no this is exactly right

[zachleat@fediverse.zachleat.com]

@stefan plenty of room for abstractions of all kinds in the big tent of the web—it’d be nice to get more momentum on web components though!

@jgarber omg .corn

@zachleat I can’t claim to have originated it, but I sure as heck get some miles out of it.

@zachleat how will I know if they are functionally complete or abandoned, if “last published” didn’t change with everyone else’s timing?

@psarant everyone must turn the key they wear around their neck at the same time

[hasanhaja@fosstodon.org]

@zachleat but what about the fact that they put the whole web at risk???
