Because it's taken VSCode less than 2 years to completely eat Sublime's lunch and dinner.


Did it eat Sublime Text's lunch and dinner because it was open sourced? Or because it had the muscle of Microsoft behind it, a company with limitless resources and a long history of muscling in on other people's turf?


> then it turns out efficacy in old people is basically nothing

didn't this turn out to be false


this is an ad


i don't get it. isn't this just traditional SPAs but worse and more limited in basically every way?


especially weird since you would use `date-fns` (vs. something like moment) specifically because it allows you to include only the functions that you require (via tree-splitting).


This is a bit of a convoluted example, but it also illustrates the point — I personally didn't know that! And I'm sure many people don't, either. The nice thing about Server Components is that for many use cases, you don't need to know the "right way" to import a library because it's simply not shipped to the client. And even the "right way" doesn't give you 0 bytes.


It's not the default what are you even talking about?

lmfao a little dramatic. JS heavy sites _can_ be great experiences if they are developed properly just like <1MB sites can be garbage if they are poorly developed.


why would anyone want this? you lose literally every benefit of Google Photos.


Hmm, good point, I guess nobody has ever lost access to their Google Account or (in the future) run out of storage space. After all, they're just photos, not important memories or anything.


Competition in those areas is still good for the rest of us.
