Ask HN: Super Fast Text-Only Sites?
Both CNN[0] and NPR[1] have extremely fast, simple, text-only versions of their sites.
Do any other news outlets offer similar services? Would be nice to collate all these ultra-lightweight sites in a list.

- open-source-ux 6y agoNot news, but Reddit: https://i.reddit.com/ https://i.reddit.com/ Much faster to load than the current Reddit website. How long it will remain active is anyone's guess.

- bananicorn 6y agoA related thing to consider: I've been thoroughly enjoying sites built on the gemini protocol[0] They're all written in a sort of restricted markdown, and the community seems to be a pretty fun place to be. [0] https://gemini.circumlunar.space/ https://gemini.circumlunar.space/
