This is my number one issue with the modern web, things are completely unusable until 100% of the page has loaded in, and in the process of getting there shit moves around with every single element that's loaded..
can we go back to the days where the raw HTML loaded first and you could at least read text even if your connection cut out and the css and JS never loaded?
Sounds like "Progressive Enhancement"
You can find this in many server side rendering frameworks where the Server will load the page as HTML first and then replace the DOM with JS-bound Elements.
If you are interested in the Topic I can highly recommend taking a look at Remix.run .
It has progressive enhancement at the core of its design. For example it uses the Forms API to send data. This way you can interact with the website with and without JS
In web dev, graceful degredation usually means writing the html first, making sure that it only includes your content and no styling. Then, adding the styling in the form of CSS. Later, adding javascript. Finally, ensuring that if javascript, or CSS is disabled, the reader can still use the site.
Funny that nobody discusses the topic of this post: applying the concept of graceful degradation to CFS/ME.
I think it's a great idea, probably the most important step to advance from "I am sick, miserable and doomed" to "I'm living my live".
I decided to be well for the rest of my life. I felt bad and and miserable for too long. Now I am well, just at lower levels than a couple of years ago.
I'm curious how low my level of wellbeing might drop, until I start to feel bad again, but do not intend to find out.
Greetings to my fellow graceful degraders!
I did find it amusing that no one seemed to know which community the post was in hahaha.
I wish you health and hope
