This site probably requires more resources then the original Winamp required.

Probably? The original Winamp ran on hardware much slower than anything you can buy new these days. This website, not a chance.

This website doesn't even run smoothly on my overpowered gaming desktop. Back in 2000 I'd have never thought we'd be at the point where I can run games in 4K happily but not scroll through a website without it lagging up.

Dude, this site almost certainly requires orders of magnitude more resources than Win95 + Winamp.
