How is tailwind modern? It's just a ton of unreadable utility styles that you have to memorize. They've just created a new metalanguage - and now they can charge people to use 'pro.' It's like the first idea that ever happened... and then we realized it was bad - and now tailwind is doing it x100 10 years later. How is that modern?
Tailwind is highly modular, and doesn't hold your hand, so it's more 'modern' than the traditional frameworks like Bootstrap that have opinionated ideas about how a card or a menu bar should look. If you have a problem trying to memorise utility styles you can always refer to documentation, so I don't think that's an argument against Tailwind.
If you want to do absolutely zero thinking when you're writing HTML, but still have the power of a framework to support it, you can always turn to classless frameworks: github.com/troxler/awesome-css-fra...
