Why is modern internet and websites so fucking dogshit?

To be completely fair, ttf fonts are absolutely garbage. Blog very related.

One bad default font has basically forced web shitters to force onto you a specific one without insane properties.

This, its like saying my car weighs half as much after I removed the engine and transmission and fuel tank.

Bro are you the same guy that was comparing an oil change with thermal paste change yesterday

This. I don't even bother making sites behave without js anymore. It's just wasted effort. Either your client can run my pozzed load or you can fuck off.

Oh well.

Interesting read but holy shit.

METAFONT has this same problem at the font level, but solves the problem elsewhere in LaTeX, so it's wrong to blame the font.

Welcome to the modern internet. The place, where many websites consist of tons of JavaScript, especially heavy JS frameworks. Sometimes you have to upgrade your hardware, so you can browse websites more comfortably.

>>108715728
I use neither of those for personal stuff and I'm happy as a clam.
Frankly, if you really can't do with shit JavaScript does might as well just go full php at that point.

Are you an Indian or Pakistani?

>>108715728
yes, it's totally websites' fault that if they specify a font browsers can't handle it. how long have browsers been basically the most used app and they're still slow and full of bugs...
>>
>>108715728
this makes no sense because all spa websites need to run a javascript blob to even render. but the font blocking idea seems cool, is that firefox?
>>

disabling JavaScript requires basically a white list of sites for which you don't disable it
web fonts don't matter just kill em

>>108715728
Basically there's no need for websites to work well so the system does nothing to cull the shitty ones. You may as well be asking:
> why are there so many ugly people
or
> why are there so many shitty games on Steam

You forget that private characters and wingdings are a thing, and often used in UIs instead of images and vectors.

Kek this would be an 11/10 website if only it didn't have fucking google analytics.
