SPAs are fine. Server-side rendering is fine, too. What's not fine is using SPAs for static pages or server-side rendering for highly interactive web applications.

Unfortunately, SPAs are often used where a classic SSR page would suffice, all in the name of "performance optimizations" and whatnot. Meanwhile, UX suffers because often edge cases like slow/spotty connections, device sleep or even just accessibility or not considered at all.
