Those websites may not be SPAs but they still contain big JS payloads.
Not sure about the others, but my guess is that if Github were created today, most of it would probably be an SPA.

Probably, although my question was not about the bloat but the claim on the article that users prefers the UX of SPAs. > my guess is that if Github were created today, most of it would probably be an SPA Why is that?
- Scarbutt 6y agoProbably, although my question was not about the bloat but the claim on the article that users prefers the UX of SPAs. Should rephrase that, they have big JS payloads to make the website feel close to an SPA as possible. > my guess is that if Github were created today, most of it would probably be an SPA Github.com today has many components that are pure JS(most new features), writing it today from scratch my guess would be they would have go almost all client-side JS.
- pier25 6y ago> they have big JS payloads to make the website feel close to an SPA as possible Can you give an example? I know Github uses Turbolinks, but that doesn't really contribute much to its bloat. > Github.com today has many components that are pure JS(most new features) What you're saying is that because some of their features on some of their pages are JS heavy then it would make more sense to make an SPA?
