I get the appeal of the 512KB Club. Most modern websites are bloat, slow and a privacy nightmare. I even get the nerdy thrill of fitting an entire website into a single IP packet, but honestly, this obsession with raw file size is kinda boring. It just encourages people micromanage whitespace, skip images or cut features like accessibility or responsive layouts. A truly "suckless" website isn't about size. It's one that uses non-intrusive JS, embraces progressive enhancement, prioritizes accessibility, respects visitor's privacy and looks clean and functional on any device or output medium. If it ends up small: great! But that shouldn't be the point. | ||

Size matters too if your bandwidth is limited. | ||

A rather perfect example of "correlation is not causation". But being "suckless" is a lot harder to measure than just running `length(string)`. | ||

Or to be even more suckless it would require the user toboatch in whatever feather they need. | ||
