I think this is comming from the same direction as desktop computing. Try to install windows 7 on brand new machine (hopefully you will get the drivers). Regardless of all the new "improvements" in windows 10, it will fly. What we did to hw performance increase is just staggering. Instead of having software that works much faster, we ate the performance for the sake of cheaper development - filling software with lasignas of huge libraries that in most cases are not needed, employing incompetent developers that know how to code but are clueless about the computer/os/browser they are running their code on, not optimizing anything,... Suboptimal technologies, suboptimal languages (to make the developers less expensive for the companies), lack of knowlidge. It stacks up, todays webpage is easly a few megabytes, for a kb of text. Due to huge list of third party dependancies that are not really needed, but are there for minor details on web page. It is just crazy and far worse than when server side rendering was "THE thing". The result is here, not only on web.
