Especially the 3D ones from Marvel Studios!
While I don't know if "war" is the appropriate
word, I say this development has been going on
for quite a couple of years.
When JavaScript first appeared, it never
worked. Now, they say it does, so with a GUI
mindset, a mouse, and a high resolution
monitor, I see why some people like it. So now
it is not about what is bad and what is good,
it is more about whose personality is what.
Note also that even when there is no
interactive web programming to it, be it
JavaScript, PHP, or CGI with C for all that
matters, many websites that are 100% static
still won't look good in a text-only Emacs-w3m
setting, as those sites were built with the
GUI/high-resolution setting in mind, with
different font sizes carrying the notion of
importance, colors that even in the HTML sense
aren't functional, but in their setting
(i.e., in the eye of the beholder) most
definitely are (but do not work here), and
so on.
