Yeah, everything was better ten years ago. Like this ten year old youtube video: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw</a> (240p?).<p>Web pages have become bloated, but they load faster on my phone now than they did on the desktop that I had in 2005.<p>There are many frustrating things occuring with development now, but it is crazy to say that ten years ago was objectively better.
