Comment on Oops, something went wrong!

If you use your computer as a bootloader for Google chrome, maybe. Local software and SASS both benefit from error messages because you cannot assume every error you can do nothing about.
An error about parsing my password and a stack trace? I can possibly deduce to limit the length, remove special characters, or add special characters and try again.
“Something went wrong.” is lazy and nontransparent.

Just 25 years experience developing websites and apps. Websites are thin clients. Every line of JS that executes in your browser is generated by more server side code, and that’s not even to speak of the middle tier and back end. So yeah. A majority of software is not on the client. Unless you’re doing it incredibly wrong.
