Anything more than a plain html website is bourgeois decadence.
I know this has been posted on jest, but this is slander.
marxists.org is not only perfectly fine, it’s a sight to behold and replicate.
Hell actually, if anything I still believe it can be improved because https://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ is peak web design and if you think otherwise you’re simply wrong.
CSS is bourgeois decadence and JavaScript is fascistic techbro overreach into my computer.
The second I’ve seen that meme I was 100% sure I would find you in the comments protesting.
No they fucking aren’t. Accessibility is important. Security is important. I want to be able to read this in bed, without the lightmode bullshit. I want my websites to be FOSS. The only revisionism is thebestmotherfuckingwebsite.co, fuck JS.
I was loving that website until it said it is sarcastic…
motherfuckingwebsite.com is peak design, and that’s how I would design my website.
The person may have been sarcastic but I sure ain’t. I also was for some really extatic when I visited https://blowback.show/ because I loved their relatively simple website design. It’s fucking great.
https://marxists.org is just fine
I dont know much about web design but the site is probably burdened by being very old. The layout is executed using a combination of classes and CSS but most of what an article needs is baked into the HTML spec these days. For example <aside> tags and stuff. There are custom CSSs for the website on GitHub and they turn out to be more complicated than expected because of how the pages are designed.</aside>
It’s not. Works by various authors have different html formatting that make it very difficult to consistently scrape. Splitting works into several pages makes it impossible to send them to pocket (or FOSS equivalents). It sucks for anything other than reading in their website.
