Don't tell me were going to rediscover progressive enhancement all over again after more than a decade. Back when we used to actually care about the end user whether you were programming frontend or backend.

Too much VC money and big tech influence in the JS ecosystem made the web worse in some ways.

I keep hearing the term "dead internet theory" getting thrown around, and at first thought it was referring to web pages that don't work, not high rates of bot-generated content.

I've had far more trouble with web pages that only work on a computer that's at least 80% similar to the developers computer, and the RAM sacrifice has been accepted, than from bots diluting real user-generated content, assuming I can even get to the page, if the CDN doesn't think I'm a bot myself, because I'm not logged into a Google or Apple account and their captcha is so bad only a bot could get through it.
