@dan_abramov pretty sure @feross is trying to say (or at least i would argue) that wikipedia has nothing to gain from switching to react

@sebmck @feross Got it now, yep. I thought this is “SPAs are bad tech direction” rather than “SPAs are not ready yet” kind of argument.

@dan_abramov @feross i don't see how wikipedia could ever benefit from a SPA though?

@sebmck @dan_abramov @feross In it’s current state of UI / UX I see no benefit, but doing a SPA could open doors for visual persistence.

@andrewdelprete @dan_abramov @feross what does visual persistence mean?

@sebmck @dan_abramov @feross One of the benefits of SPA is having a frame like persistence where pieces reload without everything else.

@andrewdelprete @dan_abramov @feross wikipedia loads fast enough though, i have less than 1s latency when clicking a link. it feels instant.

@sebmck @dan_abramov @feross So if Wikipedia has some neat UX in mind where comps persist when traversing their site, SPA could be useful.
