> Lol are you really implying it's hard to scale a message board?

I am implying that it is beyond the "3 pages from W3Schools", as you put it.

> A. Message. Board.

Yes. A fast, reliable, accessible message board that I and many others thoroughly enjoy. An awesome product.

Again, I have never suggested that its ui is complex. In fact, it's glorious how simple it is. This is the point that those htmx people make: use simple tools for simple UIs; and also, try to make your UIs simple.

> this site is amazing!

NO. IT. ISN'T.

lol. Anytime React is mentioned people like you rush in to tell others just how great stuff like...checks notes...a message board is. As if it in any, way, shape or form adds to the conversation.

You just couldn['t help yourself from rushing in to defend the simplest site on the planet (lol written in LISP) as if it demonstrates anything other than some rando building a w3 schools site in a language no one uses anymore.
