You don't need to be relevant, just being accessible is enough reason for all sorts of bots, legit or sketchy, to shove hundreds of thousands of requests down your throat.

Chrome and Firefox (probably others too) Devtools also have network simulators to test slow connection.

I guess another good example of that would be lobash. Assuming you're familiar with lodash, of course.

I guess it would be interesting if you re-wrote your website in PHP and wrote a blog post about it with the title 'Why I Moved From Ruby to PHP?'

this one looks very retro but the code is actually quite modern. it has custom fonts, css animations, gradients, etc. and no tables.

Before uninstalling stylish, consider visiting its webstore page and rating it 1-star so that upcoming users know it's not a great extension.

It's even considered harmful since extra domains means extra dns lookups which could take quite a while.

Which is more beneficial in today's web: Serving static contents from a cookieless domain but two dns lookups vs. all contents from same domain, but one dns lookup?

Re:Some Google Pixel devices shutting down at 30% battery

As a 1st gen. Moto G owner, i feel similar. I feel annoyed to be forced to get a new phone every two years. It was a much better experience to use Chrome and Spotify together with this phone in 2014. Now Spotify alone is freezing from time to time, especially after the latest update. Chrome was fast and responsive. Now it's guaranteed that if I open a web page in Chrome, any other app i might have open are killed and will have to be reloaded if i want to go back to them quick. I really like the phone and wish to use it for a while longer, but my experience is getting a bit worse each day.

This is what people have been telling since 2010. In the future with faster phones the difference will be negligible or something along these lines.

someone should also sue Apple (and Google?) for worse performance in the webview. something that run smoothly on native Safari was laggy in webview. haven't checked in a while though, not sure if this is still the case.
