Holy those pages load fast. Design feels slightly dated but the speed is fantastic.
- thwarted 6y agoAnd all the SPA frameworks were created to make pages load faster for a better experience, and now the original, simpler stuff is a much faster loading experience.
- weird-eye-issue 6y agoThey are almost always noticeably faster for page loads after the initial one. If they aren't then it was built really, really wrong
- thwarted 6y agoNoticeably faster on subsequent page loads compared to the first one, sure. But many SPA take longer, in general, to get to the usable point than this netscape page.
- weird-eye-issue 6y agoYes that is why I explicitly said "after the first one". That was my whole point it is slower on the first and faster on later ones. Which is why they are for Applications
- thwarted 6y agoThe performance of website SPAs over time isn't the comparison I made. In my experience, the first, second, and any later load-to-usable time of a SPA is longer than the load-to-usable time for websites that are implemented like this netscape site.
