Yeah I’m with you. If the web was still html-driven more than JS-driven, you wouldn’t need to make your site “agent-ready”.

On the same topic, it’s hilarious how much everybody suddenly cares about ergonomics of non-browser software. I have used SO many APIs that are just miserably documented, but now they have magical MCPs!! Which seem like they’re basically well-documented APIs? And suddenly everything needs to have a decent CLI tool because that’s what LLMs are suited for.

Like dang y’all didn’t care when the API was frustrating for me to use!!

Honestly, the whole MCP thing has completely killed what little faith I had in commercial software development.
