I believe they mean Google can easily scrape your page. Otherwise known as "SEO" in this context.
Thanks. I know what SEO is, the word "scraping" confused me, because it usually refers to people scraping the pages of various services.
I also had to read the comment twice to understand it.

SSR for the purposes of SEO can be achieved in a simpler way, without complicating your whole app to support SSR. Just pre-render the page in headless chromium / puppeteer when a search engine bot requests it and return the resulting html.
This is pretty slow though right? Those speed penalties will impact your google search ranking.
I would certainly consider this ahead of SSR driven by "isomorphic" Javascript for frontend-heavy apps.
The main advantage of server-side rendering of client-side templates is cutting your initial load time to a bare minimum (not having to wait for scripts to load/compile, taking advantage of page caching, etc.). However, this usually only matters when you're afraid of users getting impatient and bouncing, which tends to be true of sites that mainly display content and don't have a ton of interactivity, and sites like…
A big one for the need of server side rendering is SEO. Without server side rendering, most web crawlers don't have access to your content and you can't rank for SEO.

He/she is probably talking about single-page apps. But it isn't clear.
He/she is probably talking about single-page apps If you want to be pedantic about it, sure.
If I wanted to trolled by framework children I would go back to reddit.
Phoenix.LiveView — you can't ignore it, the coolest thing happening right now about server-side rendering.

I also happen to make the Elixir Foundation series of videos[2] that show how to do serverside rendering using elixir. So I’m dog fooding the dog food.

Calling it isomorphic might be a disgrace for mathematics, but in terms of the Greek meaning of single form, it’s accurate.
