Yep. There's a proliferation of reductive posts that essentially repeat the same truisms we've all heard: You don't need a SPA; NPM is a ghetto; Front end web development has too much churn.
Who cares? If you don't like the state of web dev, leave or learn to make it better. If someone were to write yet another NPM sucks article, BUT include in it a description of a PR they opened to improve the process, I'd happily upvote them. But instead people seem to be satisfied with complaining with little action.
