Hmmm... I actually have stopped worrying about bandwidth completely in 2020. My home and mobile connections have virtually unlimited data. I cannot finish them if I tried. It's amazing to see tech like this that leverages the excess data I have and converts that into speed.
- can16358p 6y agoLucky for you, but that's not really the case for everybody. For instance, I have 35GB mobile cap and 100GB home cap. While I'd love to see a faster experience while clicking links, it would be considerably wasting bandwidth if all sites implemented that. And this is just the user side: I'm not even getting into the excess load on the server side.
- donbrae 6y agoDoesn't bandwidth usage have an environmental impact? The effect of pre-fetching HTML would be negligible, however.
