Sorry, I’m gonna be that person.

*What. It should say What it feels like.

Thanks English is not my native language.

Just for the sake of information, the two common ways to put this in English are “How it feels” and “What it feels like”. The former phrase is just descriptive, so it doesn’t need the “like” at the end. The latter phrase is comparative to another thing, so it needs the like. Also this is something that native speakers mix up all the time, so don’t worry too much; your English is great!

Thanks for the explanation.

Der Name Sören ist definitiv ein Hinweis darauf :D

Technology we could never dream of on Reddit

Or “How it feels”

I feel like there’s been a gradual increase in people saying things like this (“would of” instead of “would’ve”, “apart” instead of “a part”, etc)

I guess it’s just the increase in the ease of availability of internet.

More reading social media posts than reading books, probably. If one doesn’t make the connection between the sounds and the proper written word, then you might be more likely to make mistakes like “would of” instead of “would’ve” (which is my pet peeve, incidentally)

That and the unfortunate increasing failure of the education system.

I don’t get it. In my opinion React is like the worst of the bunch…

When it came out in its time it wasn’t bad compared to the alternatives. Now there is certainly better, but honestly it will still take a long time before we can choose a standard.

Now that would be something, developers choosing a standard.

mandatory xkcd

Yes, but for the web in particular, with the current obsolete technologies that were designed to create websites with a simple interface, it is like continually trying to keep an old man with 15 terminal illnesses alive.

Could you elaborate?

Well, I have worked with two of them React and Angular. Now working with React. And the further the project goes, things just get messy, and I mean really messy. The concept of everything should be a small function is in practice not true. No dependency injection(I know you can bolt another library on top of it, but really?). The testing is a pain, it gets harder and harder to test isolated functions. Custom tags, attributes that look like the standards that are documented at MDN but are not. And most info I can find online feels like elaborate propaganda. I mean there is just nothing against React to be found, really nothing. That’s just not possible in IT.

I agree, React sucks. Been using it for years at work.

And most info I can find online feels like elaborate propaganda. I mean there is just nothing against React to be found, really nothing.

It’s just Stockholm syndrome. Everybody that wants to criticize it is too traumatized to say anything, and everybody stuck with it makes a way to think it’s great.

Add to that the fact that it is great in theory, so nobody without direct experience can criticize, and you get only positive reactions.

Thank you for the explanation, so do you think angular is better? I want to start doing front-end and I don’t know what to pick

I have tried some angular, threw up when I looked at JSX so skipped React and do a lot of Vue, Vue is by far the best of the 3. especially 3 with reusables and better TS support.

That was my experience until I tried Svelte. I loved Vue but didn’t like the transition to Vue 3. When I tried Svelte it blew me away and I never looked back.

i found out about htmx just yesterday and I was blown away. i think it’s an amazing idea, really

for small projects that you want to make in less than an eternity it should be very convenient

I… kinda find htmx to be better than all other options.

Depends on the use case tbh, but it’s a good choice in a lot of cases.

I was genuinely confused why people were talking about xhtml again this year.
