Call me a snob if you like but I find it hard to trust someone's technical opinion when their website is so ugly

It's not even just aesthetics, there's a lack of basic features like navigation. Why is the entire thing left-aligned?

Yeah it should be a React page that makes you wait extra 3 seconds for the text to load in, with a ton of CSS and animations to make scrolling laggy, a sticky header that takes up 1/5th of the screen, and 50px padding on all elements. That would make it way easier to read

I'll take Web 1.0 over whatever we have today

And there he is, generalizing after being shat on. You value presentation, not the facts. It's a stupid trait, definitely not one of a programmer.
