> "utterly obsolete technology"
this annoys me a bit. if something is still functional and provides value it's not obsolete.
as a web dev for 16 years, japanese design seems like a nice antidote.
the web used to be closer to publishing and documents and now it's more advertising and marketing oriented.
nowadays i can't even save a jpeg without it appearing as a webp in my downloads folder. everything has become so annoying.
