      literally nobody cares how you feel about the evolving usage of english goes…
      btw, the original meaning of “literally” was the same as figuratively… literally as in literature… i.e. fictional, metaphorical…

      should we freeze English right now and refuse all new definitions of words? or just accept that it’s a living language that changes with its speakers?

      I’m not sure it compares to things like scss does it? I was under the impression it fills out a similar role to bootstrap and the like

        I think it was an attempt at a joke… basically that the user introduces a faulty juxtaposition that doesn’t make sense. One is a CSS framework specifically tailored to SPA’s (or heaven forbid MPA’s) by providing many generic classes that can be re-used, where as the other 3 are CSS pre-processors designed to simplify writing CSS, though technically speaking tailwind also does pre-processing, since it provides a boilerplate css reset, use of variables, functions, concatenation and compressing them together and oh god I’m the joke… I’m the joke here. I’ve served the punchline, which is a copypasta in of itself.

        Well done, @devilish666@lemmy.world. Well done.

        It bridges the gap between styling languages and frameworks. You use it for any styling, and it brings colour palettes, spacing etc.
