Oh Hells no.

JavaScript is NOT fine, it's .... I'm really trying to think of a word that will convey the shit that it is without triggering half the people on Lemmy into an aneurysm, but I can't find it.

JavaScript is by far the worst. I've been working with JavaScript for the past 6 days and I want to hang myself, it'd be a better fate than continuing

    Yeah, I had some webpages archived and tried to use javascript to clean them up, but I ended up parsing it as xml through Powershell instead. I've done something with Python and BeautifulSoup too, a long time ago. Both much easier than JS, but somehow JS is designed to work with web pages? Make it make sense.
