    Makes sense, wasn’t untrue and I wasn’t criticizing, just wanted to make sure everyone remembers that the problem goes up the chain due to capitalism.

    Various companies/games were mentioned in the comments, but I think a good example is Hello Games. Clearly fumbled their game launch and were over ambitious with No Man’s Sky.

    But it’s gotten an incredible amount of things that were promised, and many things that weren’t, all as free updates. Sure, they’re still making money, that’s the point, but instead of Micro-transactions, overpriced DLC, fucking over the devs, shutting things down, they just keep rolling. I’m sure they’ve gotten offers of acquisition that were probably very lucrative, but they didn’t take them, and have continued their slow roll of making gamers happy.

    Working on hobby or shorter lived projects makes all your points agreeable. My work is generally on enterprise SaaS software with vast lifecycle and my thinking is

    separate css files

    module.css with imported classes: my go to outside of tailwind

    These are the same thing, unless it’s not configured correctly.

    inline styles

    Only makes sense for something computed. Like a color computed based on a user selection. Otherwise it should be a class

    scss

    On a well-maintained project SCSS should be second nature. Something like a Vue single-file component project with scss will certainly not add to the bloat. You’d just have extra lines of vanilla css to scope classes and children selection/scoping that scss does with better syntax, in addition to scss functions and the like. Note that CSS is improving to do the work that SCSS has previously done, just as JS is improving to do the work natively that frameworks, libraries, and toolkits have previously done.

    bootstrap

    Yeah bootstrap, like jQuery, had it’s time. It’s largely been replaced by native tooling that shouldn’t require external libraries. There’s plenty of CSS libraries that are purely for theming, which is mostly what people used bootstrap for. (Smart defaults, basic component and typography themes, etc).

    To me tailwind makes sense for setting up projects quickly, but gets out of hand when it comes to customization on a larger scale. You eventually end up with overrides to tailwind’s default styles that become hard to manage, outside of the scope of their theming implementation, and then ironically you’re usually just using CSS variables which is back to the core toolkit.

    In December 1939, Mitford was moved to a hospital in Bernin neutral Switzerland, where her mother and youngest sister, Deborah, went to collect her. In a 2002 letter to The Guardian, Deborah relates the experience: “We were not prepared for what we found – the person lying in bed was desperately ill. She had lost 2 stone [28 pounds; 13 kilograms], was all huge eyes and matted hair, untouched since the bullet went through her skull. The bullet was still in her head, inoperable the doctor said. She could not walk, talked with difficulty and was a changed personality, like one who had had a stroke. Not only was her appearance shocking, she was a stranger, someone we did not know. We brought her back to England in an ambulance coach attached to a train. Every jolt was agony to her.”[11]

    Oh no, she suffered the consequences of her hateful, violent actions

    Anyway
