A highly compatible design with no ads, unnecessary images, videos, animations, scripts that goes straight to point delivering you exactly the information you need and nothing else? Something that's easily accessible even with old feature phones allowing older people to get information easily?
Simply something that loads instantly and just works?

Who would want that?

The page at the top looks perfectly fine. It's useful, it gets the job done and it's lightweight.

Good, that we have specialists for both and nobody is advocating that everyone should be doing full-stack work... oh wait.

what is wrong with this frontend? not enough ads? loads too quickly?

The top one's a motherfucking website, indeed.

As a backend developer who occasionally has to work on the frontend, that top image is pretty accurate although it requires bootstrap smeared all over to pretty things up a bit. After that it will have the "Good Enough" seal of approval.

God I wish weather pages were more like that first one.

What is this bloat? Trash site.

I can make HTML look alright if I have to and it's simple enough requirements.

The real hell is making it look good in an email. Oh, you used something from the last 20 years of HTML/CSS progress? Well fuck you.

Looks like a perfectly fine frontend to me.

After some time toying with CSS I have decided to fuck it and whenever I need to make a website I will just either:

• Make a plain website with no virtually no styling.
• Use bootstrap or some other similar shit.

It will probably look more like this

No bloat, no Javashit, no problem

From my experience, devs be like:

Backend, yay! Frontend, nay! ... and I the end, not even the backend works properly.

Asa backend dev, it should be a 503 error. I live in 503 land.
