Half the reason I keep my mid-range 2018 Android phone as a daily driver, is as a litmus test to see how poorly-optimized a website is.

And this page is a very poor sales pitch in that regard.

My phone is middle-tier but it is new. This website has probably the worst scrolling performance I've ever seen while using this phone.

And the result is total frustration, because everybody else is designing on their M2 Macbook, so everything is frustrating to use.

I have an entry-level iPad from 2018 that crashes on most media-heavy websites, though I also blame Apple because it is obvious that every iOS release uses more and more RAM than the previous one. CPUs don't get slower as they age, but it certainly feels like it!

I've got a current-gen Pixel and I get lag on this page. It's bad.
