Found this interesting blog article in one of my webrings just now.
I fully agree, but this is pretty much preaching to the choir, heh.
Surprisingly, I haven’t seen many people take up the cause of writing XHTML only sites or even come at the web with an anti-bloat viewpoint, it’s mostly focused on privacy and software freedom.
I feel like they go hand in hand. Privacy usually means less bloat due to having less telemetry JS crap.
Meanwhile I do enjoy reading a good XHTML site (Easy to read, to the point), I do still like seeing peoples creativity and making their websites looking like their own. Part of me misses the geocities era when all sites were like tiny pieces of someone. People spent effort making a site instead of spamming medium blogposts or w/e. There was personality in there, instead of corporate copy-paste design.
