I can't scroll this webpage to read it unless I plug my laptop in. Scroll events have a lag time measured in whole seconds, then the page scrolls down by either a fraction of a line or by multiple paragraphs, so I can't keep track of where I was reading. Plugging in my laptop, which changes the power mode, makes the webpage barely usable, but my cooling fans are spun up to full speed now. This is using Chrome on a Dell XPS 13 with an 11th gen Core i7 and 16GB RAM.

I get high GPU consumption with that tab open

For what's it worth, the page is unreadable without JavaScript disabled on an overclocked desktop 7900X. I think it's the slowest one by far among all the crap I've seen in two decades of browsing the web.

I have visited the site in a Mac browser and on iOS Safari and scrolling is perfectly normal. Not sure what issue you are running into.

  iPhone safari here, the background had a weird distracting flicker, like my backlight was going bad.

Works perfectly on my 4GB machine on firefox, and ublock is barely blocking anything (just googletagmanager). Weird.

Not having any problems at all on my shitbox GPU-free Windows PC here, running Firefox.

It worked without issue on Firefox 125.0.2 on Windows 10, but I have uMatrix installed and didn't allow anything beyond the defaults on the page. Edit: Went back and tried allowing the firebaseio script, which added some blur to the top and the bottom of the page as well as some light blue elements to the background, but didn't otherwise noticeably affect performance. But it is possible those elements were added via some normally 3D accelerated operation that may not work on all browsers and be painfully slow when not accelerated.

MBP 2014. Firefox is smooth as can be, opening on Chrome blocks the whole machine.
