Im not fine waiting 1 second.

Most baffling is mobile reddit, where it takes like 6 seconds to load. Do they want us to use their crappy app, or they just dont care?

They’re pulling every underhanded trick in the book to try and force mobile users onto the app. Yeah, I think they want you to use the app.

They're acting like they're desperate for you to use their crappy app.

You can still get a login and have no delay.

For non-auth use, I rather wait for 1 second than not have any access at all. Which is the current state of affairs.
