It makes me kinda sad how the article talks about a five second loading time as something that's "relatively good". I guess between cheaply made, slow sites and huge sites like reddit not giving two fucks about performance the goalposts have shifted dramatically toward the bad.
Personally for simple content-based sites I find anything above ~half a second is already quite bad, assuming a reasonable underlying connection to the server (ping < 30 ms).
- MuffinFlavored 8y agoreddit is slow? I've never experienced that?
- snazz 8y agoThe new SPA site is slower than https://old.reddit.com https://old.reddit.com by a fair margin.
- kevin_thibedeau 8y agoOn mobile it's an artificial delay to upsell the app.
- brokenmachine 8y agoPlease elaborate with technical details.
- realusername 8y agoTheir mobile site is even slower than the desktop site if you try to load both on desktop.
- MuffinFlavored 8y agoThat would explain it. I avoid the new SPA redesign. Thanks!
