   @punishedbernadetta@tech.lgbt usually on the internet main limiting factor is internet speed, not CPUI think that's the main issue. Developers often own expensive hardware where this is the case, but usually for average people it is not the case.
   
   For example my phone is a 5 year old Fairphone 3. Doing HTTP requests is fast, I have fast internet (especially on WiFi), but the hardware is slow. A lot of javascript bloat often slows down the browser to lower framerates, making the website feel really unresponsive compared to a static page that loads instantly. Not to mention that it eats a lot more battery too.
   
   Don't even get my started on my Thinkpad X200 connected through gigabit fiber. Hardware is definitely the limiting factor here, not internet speed.

     @punishedbernadetta@tech.lgbt Basically you're making your making your website at best a tiny bit faster for your high end users while making the website at worst fully unusable for your lower end users.

     @sleroq@quietplace.xyz @punishedbernadetta@tech.lgbt By running it on a Intel Core2Duo CPU from 2008 that is able to render normal HTML pages without issues.

     @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo @punishedbernadetta@tech.lgbt how did you come to the conclusion that react is slow?

     @sleroq@quietplace.xyz @punishedbernadetta@tech.lgbt Loading regular HTML pages is not slow.

     @sleroq @SuperDicq Core 2 Duo CPUs are clocked at billions of Hz, with dual cores, with advanced speculative execution and are paired with several billion bytes of memory (thinkpads up to 6 billion, other hardware often up to 8 billion), thus if the software runs slowly, it's the fault of the software and not the CPU.
