Yeah, he's completely clueless and has been commenting like he knows what he is talking about. Or is rage baiting on purpose. Sometimes its impressive the lengths people can go. Nonetheless, I've seen so many people on Hacker News beg for "simple websites" and that they are just "CRUD apps that don't need complexity" while completely dismissing what you've pointed out in the previous comment.

Of course, there are webs which are developed with the worst practices and bloated to oblivion. But even the best websites with the greatest UI/UX and perceived performance will have at least some complexity to it to give that experience to the end user. UX and simplicity done right is really a craft that mixes creativity, human psychology and technical skill.
