- trumpablehump 5y agoThat list is so random and inconsistent that I would not recommend visiting it. There are very few actual lite websites, a link to Wikipedia, some random "useful" sites and what I can only imagine is spam for some services.
- giantrobot 5y agoUnfortunately a lot of those links aren't really "lite". They might be better than the site's main pages but I don't think they're equivalent to NPR's lite page for instance. That's not the fault of that list maintainer, some sites may have bloated up their "lite" pages since they were added. I used to have several lite news sites bookmarked from back in the GPRS days that no longer exist.

- Maxburn 5y agoFascinating that it is still in service. All of ours has been reclaimed for faster services and even 3g is starting to go away now.
- giantrobot 5y agoI don't miss WAP as a technology but I also definitely miss WAP and WAP-like sites on mobile. So many "lite" sites have gone full JavaScript bloat and are lite only in name. It's is not difficult to add some minimal CSS for branding and just spit out static HTML. I find the circular reasoning or bloat amusing.
