In years of browsing desktop-focused websites on my phone, this is the first website that lags at 2fps while I try to use it. High-end Samsung phone from ~2 years ago (second hand) so cpu power definitely isn't the issue. It also goes back up the page randomly if I scroll a certain way, maybe it tries to lock the view to a certain region rather than in between?

No idea what's going on with that site but I can't check out your project. I'd be interested in a ~two-sentence description of what it's like and how it's different. E.g., is it using the Signal protocol without phone numbers? It so, how's it different from Wire? If not, what does it use, custom protocol? Does it have a description I can look up elsewhere?

It protects metadata using a mixnet and the E2E encryption for authenticated channels uses post quantum cryptography(SIDH) to establish symmetric keys. The infrastructure is run by 3rd party node runners and there's an open source API for other applications in addition to the messenger being open source.

I'm not having issues with the website, but I will raise it with the web developers to see if they know what's happening.

No problems for me on a Samsung Galaxy S10, using Chrome. Maybe it's your browser.
