For science, I just tried loading YouTube in both Chrome and Firefox. I'd say Chrome may have been marginally faster, but you'd really have to get a profiling tool out to quantify it.
As to the rest of it, not really sure what you're talking about.
- userbinator 5y agoYouTube and plenty of other sites worked fine on the typical computer of the time which would have IE6. Over a decade later, hardware is much more powerful yet the site is even slower than it used to be. I've started using Invidious exclusively because of that. Doing less with more is not "progress".
- scoopertrooper 5y agoI haven't really noticed a slow down. Maybe you shouldn't base your entire world view on your own anecdotal observations?
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoone should not base world views on personal observations alone, but one should probably modify personal behavior based on those observations.
- secondaryacct 5y agoDo you mean he should witness and ignore the fact youtube had slowdown significantly for him and do nothing at all?
