Why I Burned JavaScript (And You Should Care)
I was once a devout JS acolyte, building my digital altar to frameworks and libraries. But the fire of efficiency burned too bright, and I had to let it go.
The 3 Fires That Burned My Faith
Bloatflation
A single component now requires 3MB of JS just to open. Modern JS isn't solving problems - it's creating financial ones.
Developer Hell
Framework wars, ever-changing tooling, and the cult of "unified dev experiences" left me with more stress than solutions.
Access Excluded
JavaScript dependency chains broke 3 out of 4 low-bandwidth regions. Time to burn the bridge to progressiveness.
