So something that used to take a $299 software package and required every user to install a browser plugin can be done natively in-browser with few lines of CSS, that's great!
yup. but after 2 decades and even makes HN devs go wow! and still locks the browser after scrolling 2 pages (chrome).. its very difficult to understand the point that op makes unless you were an experienced developer on flash. I get the same feeling when i see nocode/lowcode tools..[1]
