    Good thing web pages are supposed to be documents and not “applications,” then!

    If you want a goddamn application, go resurrect Java Web Start or something.

      That was true 20 years ago. Things evolve. No one wants to download and install ten million individual apps for every single thing they do on the internet.

        The irony of people posting on web applications they utilize for their own enjoyment, “applications don’t belong on web browsers” is killing me here.

        There is a portion of the tech industry with their head stuck firmly up their ass and it seems a lot of em hang out in the fediverse. These people would demand we go back to party lines and manual switchboards. Techno-hipsters who are just angry at the next generation who took their BBS internet and actually made the world use it.

        Downvote me, that’s fine. Use that interactivity application on your browser. Go be the very definition of irony. Please.
