I find the characteristics of the modern web more like trying to
get through life if I disliked the taste of sugar - everyone keeps
putting it in where I don't want it.

The split that the article describes sounds like what the
proponents of modern web technologies describe as Web 2.0. A
website choosing not to adopt the "Web 2.0" technologies might
indcate a split of opinion, but the pracical split was when
websites I've used for many years in lightweight web browsers
without Javascript or CSS support became unusable except in
Firefox/Chrome based browsers.

Frankly blogs and personal websites aren't the problem there in
the first place for me. Some might look very broken without CSS,
but I don't care anyway. It's everything else, even mainstream news
websites which basically have the same task as large blogs, that
have become less usable in my opinion. Even more so if you don't
want 3rd parties like Google keeping tabs on you while you browse
(potentially via their unavoidable, and ever more numerous, captcha
scripts, if not via Google Analytics).
