  It’s wild that OP would think these two things are equivalent.

  Pronouns are a thing that harms nobody, and the people frothing at the mouth are going out of their way to hurt people who did nothing wrong.

  AI (in its most common meaning at this time in pop culture) at the minimum is wasting electricity (and it’s associated climate impact), and has the potential to totally decimate the job market and usher in an era of inequality that we haven’t seen for hundreds of years, while simultaneously stealing from artists. The people frothing at the mouth aren’t hurting anyone.

  To use a bit of hyperbole, it’s kinda like if you said:

  Some of y’all see “white power” and freak out without processing anything that’s being said, like a conservative who sees a mixed race couple.

  Like pretty clearly people have a good reason for freaking out when they see that, and the other side of the equation are just bad people.

  Bond is supposed to be sexy AF.

  That makes him a bad spy, but a good protagonist.

  I also feel like everyone seems to be missing that we’re taking about degradation, which isn’t usually “no js at all”, it’s some subset that isn’t supported. People use feature detection to find out of some feature is supported in the browser and if it’s not the they don’t enable the feature the depends on it.

  For the chat example, you could argue that a chat can degrade into a bulletin board, but I’d argue that people use chat for realtime messaging so js is needed for the base use case.

  If your webpage primarily just displays static information, then I agree that it should work without js or css. Like Wikipedia, or a blog, or news, or a product marketing page, or a forum/BBS.
  But there is a huge part of the web that this simply doesn’t apply to, and it’s not realistic to have them put in huge effort to support what can only be a broken experience for a fraction of a percent of users.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They know ssr is a thing which is why they used that term. But ssr produces a static page or static component, where webapps often require some level of interactivity for their basic functionality, such as reacting to server events. They’re asking if that can be achieved with ssr

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe I’m out of the loop because I do mostly backend, but how do you update the chat window when new chats come in, without JavaScript?

  I agree.

  I believe it’s up to the devs to decide if they want to, or to not include it as a statement.
  But I don’t think that there should be any kind of stigma with having (or using) difficulty options.

  Blah blah trucks are stupid. You’ve heard it before, but it’s still right over 90% of the time.

  I’m also stupid, but instead of trucks I buy performance cars. We can be stupid together.

  only we are allowed to steal these peoples content

  I guess beware the danger of ToS that grants the platform unilateral rights to use your content they host; just because you don’t care what they can do with it now doesn’t mean some new tech won’t come along that lets them use your content in ways that horrify you
