For those who don't know the size of the problem:

In 2006 I bought a new [entry level] Computer with 256 MB of RAM and a single-core P4 Celeron with 2,8 GHz.

• This thing ran #WindowsXP and #NeedForSpeedMostWanted just fine.

• Nowadays it would crash trying to open #Slack even on a minimalist #Linux distro like @bunsenlabs in @dillo, a lightweight browser ...

And now imagine that some folks have to use #Slack, #MicrosoftTeams, #Telegram, #Signal, #WhatApp, #WeChat, #QQ and #LineMessenger at the same time on their machine, and you can imagine that this will make entry-level desktops already scream harder than if someone were to loop the Lost Coast benchmark on them...

• The #bloat of modern #WebApps is just the socially accepted equivalent to #Cryptojacking desktops and driving some *phat #SuperUselessVehicle just to get less than a kg of groceries at a walking distance supermarket.

Everywhere else we'd not accept such a #bloatware IRL.

• So why should we accept #obscene|ly #WastefulComputing*?

You know someone fucked up #WebDesign when logging out makes your CPU spike to 85% and the fan sound like one's running a #Shitcoin #Mining #Malware (aka. #Cryptojacker) and closing the tab results in 1 GB less RAM and 3 GB less overall cached assets.

• And yes I did check these results by running sudo sh -c "sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"' before, during and after the website has been opened.

@MxVerda I think #JavaScript is being.runed by the fact that it's being abused for #tracking & #cryptojacking #malware to the point that disabling it is a necessity!

@tjhexf personally, I hate #JavaScript because it's #ableist, bricks #accessibility and the only "cool" thing it has demonstrated is the abuseability for #tracking and #Cryptojacking #malware!

@jonathankoren I'm just the kind of person who expects shit to work on #LynxBrowser over @torproject and if it doesn't then it's ableist trash IMHO.

• Consider #MkDocs-#Material w/ #Privacy Plugin if you like #Markdown and a sleek site that isn't a 24/7 job to avoid getting #hacked, loaded with #malware like #Shitcoin-#Cryptojacking-shite and merely update in time!

@ryanc using #JS #Malware to protect against #Bots is just as bad as #CryptoJacking.

• Noone gives a shit whether it's #shitcoins or "#DDoS protection" that makes fan go brr and battery go empty in the end!

@leberschnitzel shure. Take your time.

• Usually the most effective solutions are further away from said webserver.

Espechally since #JavaScript gets universally blocked by users of @torproject / #TorBrowser like myself simply because every single piece of #JS I came across was not "technically necessary" if not outright #malware designed to do #Cryptojacking, #BrowserFingerprinting and/or steal logins.
