I usually agree with this, but I make an exception for Pudding because they consistently do this and it’s kind of their brand to have really immersive JS art/media. But I have the benefit of having read and enjoyed their stuff before.

It’s probably a false distinction, but it feels different to a SaaS product offering page, or product launch, where I need to get information, compared to someone using JS to create art.

This whole article could be summarised in about 300 words, but I would have had very little emotional or conceptual enjoyment of it.

Not quite as immersive as their deep dive into the Visual History of Rickrolling [0] but still a neat and interesting project.
