No, I think he’s right. I don’t recall the web being any faster today than it was thirty years ago, download speed excepted. The overall experience is about the same, if not worse, IMO.
- pibaker 8mo agoWhy would you make an exception for download speed? It was the reason why the internet was slow back then. This is like saying Victorian Britain wasn't polluted, except for all the coal burning.
- ok_dad 8mo agoCars have much more power today but generally don’t go much faster because they’re much heavier. Just because downloads are faster doesn’t mean the user experience is faster or more snappy. In fact, it might be worse. Quality doesn’t follow from quantity.
