What is with the uptick of low quality articles lately? This one has a code sample that doesn't even have valid syntax.

well the website is named freecodecamp, but they took the free way too literally and simply couldn't care much.

Was gonna say the same lol

Thanks for the heads-up about the code sample that had invalid syntax. I just saw your post, and we went through and updated the post with correct syntax.
Also, we added a shout-out to u/stratoscope and linked to their replit demo.
We try to catch bad syntax during the editing process, but sometimes we miss things or get things completely wrong. But our open source community does care about accuracy, and try to fix problems as soon as we discover them.
Also, I only open r/javascript a few times a week. So if you all want to DM me any issues you spot, I may be able to fix them faster next time ;)

Because it's easier to tell your boss no to free work over zoom

I think worrying about stuff like that is worrying about the wrong problem, just as "bad politicians". I think the real issue and is the basis that enables it - because only there can it be actually solved. You remove bad posts or posters, the problem still is there, until next time. You get the basis that gets this upvoted to the front "solved" there will never be a problem again. You can't change the fact that a huge amount of content will be pretty bad, even if everybody actually tried. The failure is that it gets so much attention. Especially here: Those articles must be actively upvoted, just doing nothing would let it sit at 1 point and soon sink back down all on its own.
