Let's be honest: mobile web is a far crappier experience than the desktop web
- Sanddancer 11y agoBecause the mobile web is putting the magnifying glass to the issues that have been lurking in sites. Most people here have computers and the bandwidth to download a large site in seconds, and needed RAM and drive space to have a large cache. When you get rid of that cache, and you slow down the connection, the Verge is a shitty site on the desktop too.
- sergiotapia 11y agoBecause of the data their website serves, only about 3% of it is actual content. The rest is beacons, and trackers, and ads. It's precious coming from them.

- CmonDev 11y agoLet's be honest: web is crap period. Ever since people came up with the crazy idea that documents can somehow be scripted into applications.
