In 2007 I was writing websites that were mostly rendered on a server, with JavaScript used selectively in some places for interactivity
I remember writing at the time that moving everything to the client was solving one problem (poor encapsulation of JavaScript-powered front-end components) with another (needlessly rendering everything on the client)
The industry moved toward CSR anyway, and I had to learn it to continue having a job. And now, here we are.

Why do we do this to ourselves as an industry?
