You know how antiques have a binomial distribution of value over time? They are valuable when new or very old, but trash when freshly obsolete.

I think classic style websites are going to come around. Not quite space jam whacky era but better mother fucking website for sure

The success of NeoCities and static blog sites in general suggests you’re correct. Best of all, AI can’t produce sites that awesomely terrible - it’s a hallmark of authentic human creativity, under construction banners and all.

I can’t produce a website that is half as endearing and fun as my 8yo self’s first attempt around y2k after earnestly reading my dad’s copy of “HTML For the World Wide Web” by Elizabeth Castro. The excitement of page counters, discovering CGI, even creating a really bad click which didn’t two time with JavaScript.

I don’t have time (or enough interest) to try it, but I’d be surprised if they couldn’t with some half-decent prompting

I like your joke and agree wholeheartedly with your point, but it is awfully difficult to upvote a comment that contains “/s”. Usually that’s an auto-downvote.

Just let your comment stand. You don’t need to call attention to the fact that it’s a joke.

The Paradox of acheron: In order to point out character sequences that are insufferable in a comment, one's comment must also bear the insufferable character sequence.

you would be both surprised and deeply sad by how many downvotes and comments they would get if they removed the /s

No need, the pun is in the title / on the website already.
