This is so frustrating. Though I recently come across a rare bread, that I thought stood out on load speed. The BBC of all places. While following the sub disaster I was pleasantly surprised at how quick it always loaded. Nearly always it would load near instant after clicking my bookmark. (Definitely not something that is that common when you live in NZ)
Not at all what I expected from a news site. They're usually full of crap and dog slow.
This is the specific URL I experienced this with. Though the whole site seems mostly very quick. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-us-canada-65967464
And this is on a 2017 MBP, which some sites are really slow. Nothing crazy like the new silicon CPUs here either.
If you can install Lagrange on Mac, install it and try gemini://gemi.dev
Then head to the Newswaffle link and input https://bbc.com or just scroll down the page to head to the converted site.
Sorry I forgot the URL:
https://gmi.skyjake.fi/lagrange/
It’s fast but it still resets the scroll to the top about 700ms after it loads on an iPhone
