That the HTML/CSS structure of web programming is absolutely disgusting and not necessary. The internet could be and should be so much more from a developer pov. Also people who double space instead of tab often have their mouths open while mashing space 16 times.

I completely understand and clearly see that web development is the future, but I still think it’s all gross and will always prefer targeted efficient compiled code. Why? Because I’m a huge fucking dork.

Did you have your mouth open while assuming that indenting with spaces actually involves pressing the space bar?

Dunno, maybe! 🤔 Tell me, 15 years ago which editor were you using? Editors have come so far in the last 15 years and I think that many people forget how rough even visual studio was for the longest time.

But do go in with the passive aggressive tone to a comment made in a thread about unpopular opinions. Very noble!

15 years ago I was too young for programming, but I'm pretty sure Vim already had the expandtab option at that time.

You're the one who started the passive-aggressive tone…
