Reddit performs very well. The new UI is legit faster. There is a bit of stupid here and there with it, and if you aren't logged in the experience is horrible, but speed is, IMHO, not one of the site's problems.

- com2kid 5y agoWhat OS? Fresh Firefox instance, Windows 10, hitting homepage without logging in. 2 seconds, if that, page is fully loaded. Chrome, I am logged in, but still using the old UI somehow. Same 2 second page load. Core I7-8550. 16GB of RAM. Running on a laptop whose battery is pretty much useless and whose fans are rather upset at the moment!
