I am a big fan of the "UX" at HN. I recently discovered indiehackers.com and while I like the content a lot I am having a hard time hanging out there. The site is too dark and there is too much noise, on HN there is just one feed which is nice.
- melony 4y agoIndiehackers is very slow, the site owner likes to use pithy quotes loading screens to mask poor SPA engineering.
- waspight 4y agoyes, I agree. It is painfully slow in fact. I tend to navigate a lot as well on such sites.
- damir 4y agoI use separate browser with JS disabled and it loads fast. No pithy quotes, no spinners, just fast content. Sure, some features break, but it is enough to get the content. Try it...
- waspight 4y agoI had a look at the api calls and those seems fast so you are probably right.
- winternett 4y agoIt took 20 seconds to load for me every time... Def a frustrating experience... They should lighten up on their UI design and go minimal perhaps if they don't want to spend more on a CDN.
