Until there are electricity bills from servers to pay.

JavaScript on the server, only when I can't say no for whatever reason, like being forced to search for another job as consequence of it.

Instead of rewriting JavaScript tools in Zig, Rust, Go, whatever cool compiled language of the month, use the said language directly.

I believe all of Zig, Rust and Go have been around for long enough to not deserve the moniker "cool compiled language of the month" though.

I do agree that it's time to write frontend not in JS. It has been time for 10+ years even but oh well.

English reading compreehension problem, or feeling attacked?

Needlessly provocative. Sounds more like you felt attacked.

No reason for me to feel attacked, I pointed out that what you said doesn't make much sense in terms of how long have these languages been around.

On the contrary, apparently we are in a need of English lesson over here.

"Instead of rewriting JavaScript tools in Zig, Rust, Go, whatever cool compiled language of the month, use the said language directly."

Meaning use Zig instead of JavaScript, use Rust instead of JavaScript, use Go instead of JavaScript, use "whatever cool compiled language of the month" instead of JavaScript, or if you prefer for the last example, use "whatever compiled language takes your fancy" instead of JavaScript.

Clear enough?

Would be clear if it did not seem to me that you are including three languages that have been around for a while in the "whatever cool compiled language of the month" group.

If not -- then clear. If yes, then this is getting even more confusing.

It is called an enumerations of choices, 3 named ones, followed by a generalisation of whatever else might possible as option.

Given that boring languages like Java, C#, OCaml, Haskell are kind behind their times for cool kids to rewrite stuff, that leaves the unamed cool programming language of the month as option, whatever that language may be.
