I would also like to see a PDF that has all the text in one place, presented linearly. This looks like a very worthwhile read, but waiting a few seconds for two paragraphs to load is a very frustrating user experience.
I am using Safari on iOS - I disabled private relay and tested again, still seems oddly slow. No extensions; the settings to periodically delete cookies and block popups are enabled, don't see why those would affect this. Maybe it's just HN traffic, thousands of people flipping through the first dozen or so pages.
Edit: I just checked again and it didn't load at all... I also see this is on the front page again, at 5:30pm Eastern US time :) Probably HN hug of death.
I'm with you. The theme is cool for a brief blog post, but anything longer and I want out of the AS400 terminal.
I found it much better by clicking "light" at the top to change theme.
Found it more readable, yeah, but all of the captions on the diagrams- identifying block types by color- no longer made any sense.

A few seconds is way longer than we intended! When I click around all pages after the first load in milliseconds.
Do you have any script blockers, browser cache settings, or extensions that might mess with navigation?

Yeah, good idea! I think a PDF with links so that it's still easy to cross-reference terms would get the best of both worlds.
