The fact that this needed to be said is concerning.

There's no FOUC if you add a stylesheet to <head>, and it concerns me that people seeing that flash have come to expect it as a fault of CSS, when it's really these frameworks making a decision to load the stylesheet via javascript.




I completely agree. I'm promoting a concept called TACE to get back to the principles of the web that were being promoted between 2000-2010. I've realized that a lot of web developers these days don't understand the basic principles of HTML, CSS, and JS because they initially learned web development using a Javascript framework.

I feel like this is an overblown reaction to a single person getting something wrong in the internet? It's not really concerning that not everyone knows everything with a 100% degree of certainty.


Why is seeing plain text before the stylesheet is loaded considered to be worse than seeing nothing at all before the stylesheet is loaded?


reflow while you're trying to read something sucks
