It takes a while to load. Especially on shitty internet, but otherwise i did not experience any slowness so far.

Actually due to preloading the opposite seems the case. But i have it always open as pinned tab.

Also i use chrome, maybe thats a issue with your browser? (If not chrome)

Yup I'm using Firefox as my main browser, I'll see if it's any better on chrome when home. I imagine they optimize for their own, but it still makes a tonne of requests.

yeah most likely "optimized for chrome" :/

I guess it works for me because i never close it, its just there and pinned and chrome does a good job managing pinned passive tabs.
