for content sites, stateless is fine. for web apps you need states of all different kinds. even the smallest detail is a state in an application.

endpoints themselves are stateless, but the web application is stateful. you only have to build the world once, and its much friendlier for end users.

I wasn't talking about frontend state, just the server. Frontend state is kind of irrelevant, tbh.
