You mean when you had the same internet speed 10 years ago, right...?
- PaulDavisThe1st 4y ago10 years ago in suburban Phila, I had 50/50. Today in rural NM, I have 40/5. Many of my neighbors have 25/2. Time is not the only thing that controls internet bandwidth.
- com2kid 4y agoI could pull 2 megabytes per second down back in 2000. I was at 5x that by 2010. My internet speed didn't really improve from 2010 to 2021, (Comcastic!) then I got fiber. File downloads are faster (800mbit gets binary fast), web pages are about the same. Servers have gotten faster, but ad tech had made crap slower. SSR won't help solve ad tech garbage making pages janky.
- Nextgrid 4y agoYou could exclude adtech from the equation using an ad blocker and theoretically make everything lightning-fast, but in reality adtech is not the only problem and non-ad JS also grew to consume all the available resources.
