    Remember when websites had a built-in loading indicator, and you didn’t have to implement it yourself via JavaScript?

      I remember when the web didn’t have JavaScript.

      Honestly, though it was much worse back then. I prefer the variety and features of modern browsing over (mostly) plain text.

      What I wish we could do away with on the web is videos. Let’s go back to just images and text, thanks. Animations are fine though 👍

        Seconded. I really enjoyed pre-video Internet.

          I third that. Videos are so incredible inaccessible. Want an easy-to-follow tutorial or heck a searchable document? nah mate video is all you get, and ads with it!
