@joepie91 @sil what part of

[…] a net negative in my experience […]

is not clear?

Sorry, but it only takes few things to sour something for people.

• So far I've only seen #JavaScript being used to make sites more #inaccessible, more #bloated, less #privacy-friendly and more obnoxious!

Obviously #JS, alongside #Cookies and #Tracking, are mere tools of #Enshittification but that certainly is as much warranted as the shitstain #Blockchain and #NFTs got due to #CryptoBros using #Shitcoins to #PumpAndDump-#scam #TechIlliterates and #FinanceIlliterates that are "#HornyForMoney!"

• OFC that hurts honest people just like #Shitcoin-Scams hurt #Monero despite being technically incapable to being weaponized for #NFT-Bullshit like #NFTmalware.

Either we say "#Tech is #apolitical!" and accept diverging opinions and experiences to exist as equal

or

We say "#TechIsPolitical!" and ask "Who benefits?" from the rapid onset #Enshittification and purposefully engineered, #PlannedObsolescence due to #Bloatware, regardless if JS or #Windows11 or purposefully bricking support for legacy versions of #iOS.

#QuiBono #bloat

@sil except #JavaScript is a net negative in my experience as it is only good for 3 things:

• making websites #inaccessible to #TextBrowsers, thus #discriminating against #blind users.

• Injecting #malware like #Shitcoin #miners for #CryptoJacking.

• Violating #consent of users with #tracking and #adware.

Tell me i I'm wrong!
