Maybe the users are too blame as they measurably prefer websites with modern UX and don't really care about latency over a few hundred milliseconds.

- searchableguy 6y agoNot really. People are forced to use many products of big companies and others which are largely responsible for this. If your school uses gsuite (which they likely will given free stuff and integration), you can't choose not to use gsuite.

- veilrap 6y agoI don't think there's really a problem with a couple 100ms of latency for web services. However, what often happens, is that "modern" websites take many seconds to actually do simple operations which is clearly horrible design.
