      If you can actually scroll all the way to the bottom, you're greeted by a job application link. Is this dropbox's answer to google foobar?

      Instead of answering algorithms challenges, the challenge is to own a device fast enough for scrolling to work 🙃

      Years back, I remember thinking that "modern"/complex websites are so terrible to use on a phone, surely practices will change.

      Yet apparently the trajectory is that 2020 websites will feel on a then-current desktop PC as 2012 websites did on a 2010 phone.

      TBF, the capabilities of browsers are rapidly expanding, and there's greater demand than ever for feature-rich Web apps.

      Features that are completely wasted if the app is effectively non-responsive on everything but a high-end desktop PC.

      I'm not against features, but first and foremost, the basic user experience has to work.

      My primary browsing/email machine is a Skylake laptop I bought last year, and I'm a well-off software dev who can afford to buy new machines

      every 2-3 years no problem. If your website doesn't work without severe stutter on a <1-year old upper-midrange machine, *who is it for*?

      That's a crazy high cut-off to set. (And probably not intentional.)

      IME, being "feature rich" and "dog slow" are virtually uncorrelated. The page we're discussing is a great example of that.

          See also asana and zulip, which are so slow that speed is one of the primary reasons I hear that people leave or can't stand the apps.

          I recently paired with someone on a "slow" machine, only 10x faster than the minimum requirements to run Quake 3...

          The machine that can run 10 copies of Q3 can't handle any single app mentioned in this thread, a todo list a chat app, and a static site 😂

          Yes, you can have the features and a responsive, fast UI to use them. Not mutually exclusive. If something slow, likely b/c impl.’s bad
