Ask HN: Is it ok to use traditional server-side rendering these days?

So I was going to start on a small ASP.Net core project today. It wasn't anything complicated, and I was just going to use server-side rendering with Razor. But then I forgot. It's almost 2017, I'll probably get kicked out of the web developer community for not using Angular, or React, or something else. Jokes aside, is it discouraged to use server-side rendering?
