Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites
mesamunefire@piefed.social 1 day agoFrames still break on some sites. center is still being joked about. Once in a while you still see plaintext on some very old sites.
And as a dev of over 20 years, I can say for a fact that deprecations will occur. And its all code cruft for modern browsers to navigate. Its easier to let them die. And in 10+ years the txt docs will still work. Mostly. Maybe. :D Unicode emojis make it even more confusing to the conversion.

If they are useful, people will still use them. We can have both. Modern Browsers that are closer to full scale OSes AND tiny little txt sites that give users info on the given topic.

even if the website uses deprecated elements, it wont really break. modern browsers will still have compatibility with the old ass tags

blink and center dont work on most modern sites. iframes in particular break now. Give it another 10 years. Hell React will break if you dont keep up with the updates every 6ish months. Or so it feels.
We can have both. Sites that marvel and little txt sites.
