Still wild to me that we built webpages like this (lemmy.ml)

The JavaScript isn't slow at rendering, it's re-doing all the network requests. It re-loads parts of the page each time the layout changes.

Oh damn, that's worse than I thought. That does make it look a lot more "Meh, fuck it.", like they don't have events set up to re-trigger just the re-rendering, but rather they jump to the start of a big download-and-render-everything function.
