Sure Reddit has more write activity but I don't see the number of replies being such a big factor. SO questions have answers, comments, tags, related questions, and many other secondary data to load. Reddit is slow due to poor architecture and a terrible frontend.
- onlyrealcuzzo 7y agoOld Reddit isn't slow. It seems to mostly be the new frontend.
- shakna 7y agoOld Reddit is still slow, but not too bad. Reddit's new software stack is... Atrocious.
- markus_zhang 7y agoI recalled that back in the days when the new Reddit has been rolled out, there were quite a few days that it's difficult to open in mobile browser. Now it's much better.
