How does it get this bad?
- belltaco 6y agoAtleast you were able to read the article after 5 seconds. This is what I get. https://i.imgur.com/XqKEvn3.png https://i.imgur.com/XqKEvn3.png

- nyanpasu64 6y agoBlock cookies on medium.com. You'll never have to deal with login/payment prompts again. (In the past, it has responses though, but the sidebar still works now.) EDIT: I block cookies on many news sites as well. It bypasses paywalls on many sites (but not FT).
- boring_twenties 6y agoWhat kind of CPU are you using? For me, it loads instantly over Wifi-N. That's with JavaScript disabled, though, as per default. With JavaScript enabled, it still loads near-instantaneously, with the exception of the big image at the top. I heard my CPU fan spin up for a second or two, then the image eventually appeared. Nice. This is with a 4770K.
- komali2 6y agoI'll play, but the question "what CPU did you use to load that text blog" is... well I dunno what it is but I'm tickled. Intel® Core™ i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz × 4
- boring_twenties 6y agoOh, I certainly agree it's a tickle, but at least the solution would be clear: disable JS. Your CPU doesn't seem any slower than mine, really, so maybe that's not the problem either.
