The complexity of web development frontend itself is just absurd. The mess of dependencies, the mess of language transpiling, opaque abstract functions with unreadable call stacks, asset management, sync vs async, the random best practice of the week, etc.

I look at the state of web pages and apps and it's not even for the betterment of user experience! Hacker News and old.reddit.com still provide the smoothest, fastest experience at the cost of having to zoom in every once in a while, but the price is worth it.
