Mighty Makes Google Chrome Faster
Maybe I&#x27;m biased (I certainly use powerful-ish machines, so maybe I&#x27;m not the target market), but I genuinely can&#x27;t relate when people on here talk about the web being slow as a category.<p>Sometimes a heavy web-app like Twitter will be slow on first load, but Mighty wouldn&#x27;t help with network speed, right?<p>Slack is slow because it&#x27;s slow to load actual conversation data; the iOS app is just as slow as the Electron app. This is not UI jank; it&#x27;s a slow API and&#x2F;or insufficient prefetching.<p>Jira is slow because it sucks; I&#x27;ve used native apps that are slow because they suck.<p>Other than that, I don&#x27;t have many relevant experiences to point to. I&#x27;m sure for people running older machines the picture is different (the state of web engineering as a whole could certainly be improved on several dimensions), but I also doubt people stuck using slow computers can afford to spend $30-$50&#x2F;month on something like this.<p>I&#x27;m genuinely asking: what things are slow for you? Is it just the fact that the code has to load before it can request the data (or render anything) that makes it feel slow? Or is there genuine sluggishness? What web apps are you using that I&#x27;m not?
