@simeon Heard, and I am partially guilty of what you’re describing.
My frustration is that we don’t recognize all these web dev things as separate crafts, which lead to subpar frameworks and solutions.
I can deal with Tailwind as long as I’m not the one using it, but things like React and the low-quality industrialization of the web is what drove me away from front-end development years ago. It just makes me sad, and also angry at times.
One perk of this going “viral” is that I’ve never received so many website bug reports in such a short amount of time (3–4).
Downsides of letting your website go semi-legacy. 
@iamada Thank you! It is so frustrating.
You might resonate with this article that I pinned here:
The article I did not want to write, or finish, now published by popular request: "You have two downsides: you are young, and you are a woman" https://marijkeluttekes.dev/blog/articles/2024/10/06/you-have-two-downsides-you-are-young-and-you-are-a-woman/ #sexism #career

@carlton Maybe. I also see a general disregard for the craft and lack of knowledge in those who learn a framework first and skip the basics.
Of course it’s a simple complaint post that blows up instead of other ones.
Internet, always be internet’ing. 
@martijn Still better than my former English teacher, who had Canadian family and a partner named “Freek”.
RIP your name too, haha.
@martijn The way macOS’s VoiceOver pronounces it is hilarious, like “Mari-Jix”?
Some form of “Mary”, “Marie”, or “Mariek” is the usual thing, or just sheer panicked noises. 
@martijn Thank you! It’s not just my domain name, it’s my company name. The inspiration was (unsurprisingly) me using that writing to explain to non-Dutch folks how to pronounce my name in English.
@jscholes Thank you. Much appreciated!
@maybeanerd I joked a while ago that with the way people treat link versus button, it feels like subject that requires a PhD.
@jscholes Thanks. The entire code block is a disaster (visually as well) and I don’t control the output. It’s one of those legacy things I’ve been meaning to fix for longer than I care to admit.
My apologies for the bad experience. Once I have fixed some other style and JS related stuff, this comes next.
@annika @Ashedryden Ashe said wrong answers only.
To all US folks on here: I wish you all much strength in the coming days.
May the nightmare orange be squashed out of the race.
@mirabilos Now that sounds interesting.
I made a joke about Comic Mono earlier, but it's actually a font worth visiting.
@me @arraybolt3 I am a Fira Code girly and get awfully distracted by Comic Mono for some reason, but it’s a good font. Also, Comic (Sans) gets too much hate and I will die on this hill.

@arraybolt3 My friend @me uses it and he’s a fan!
@Optional Perfect. 10/10 no remarks. Ship it!
@mirabilos Before you get back to that other point; if it’s of the same level as setting cursors in CSS, please spare yourself the effort, I am aware of that.
@mkj I can’t judge your website from here, but I highly recommend this article about disclosure navigations:
