  I've built multiple PWAs for clients. None of them have anywhere close to the performance or loading problems reddit has (Safari related bugs however? Probably on par). It's slow and bloated to force you out of chrome/firefox and into the app they control.

    > It's slow and bloated to force you out of chrome/firefox and into the app they control. Yes, but nobody makes a slow and bloated app on purpose. It's slow and bloated because they have deprioritized the web app.

      The interstitial propeller pages on mobile browsers are definitely purposeful delays to degrade the web experience. Switch to the desktop site and all of a sudden pages reload immediately.
