<H3 ID="htmlbeliefs"><A HREF="#htmlbeliefs">What makes good HTML</A></H3>
<H4>updated 2021-05-12</H4>
<P>
It's no secret that I type every character of my website, by hand, without any form of generation.
I brag about it a lot. It's my justification for calling other, ostensibly better websites garbage.
It also doubles as a bit of a running gag. The intention, partially, is to shock people.
Also a bit to inspire them. "All you need is a browser and a text editor." And the usual contrarianism.
Many of these qualities are considered bad and for good reasons - it's just needless. We've progressed past raw HTML-writing.
Modern computers can handle modern websites. And these are all not only good reasons but true.
</P>
<P>
However keep in mind that sometimes progress isn't good. (I <B><I>do not</I></B> mean social progress, which I support in most forms.)
Where has progress in the web taken us? <I>Commercial advertisements</I> in cyber-space? Web browsers running proprietary third party code?
Digitally restricted media being limited to playback within browsers? While yes, these are technological advancements, they're a
progression of Capitalism, not of humanity. They are a sign of the conquest of the web by the hands of the corporate world. Yuck.
</P>
<P>
So I don't write bare HTML to be contrary to other "web developers", though contrarianism is a welcome part of it.
I write bare HTML to encourage the usage of web browsers that prioritize privacy and tell anyone looking to make a buck through the web to sod off.
</P>
<P>Anyway, with the philosophical side out of the way, here's a list in arbitrary order of things I think make good HTML</P>

No necessary JavaScript <I>at all</I>.
If your site isn't accessible with NoScript enabled it's totally useless.
If you provide a service via JavaScript, rewrite it in native code.
If you provide a service that's redundant to others' services, good on you.
There needs to be more software diversity even with technologies I don't necessarily like.

Your site should be viewable without CSS.
