it's kinda wild how fast bluesky's webapp is like a react app doesn't have to feel slow as shit?
@noiob yeah no pun intended I really like how reactive it is
@Siph reminds me of nebula in comparison to youtube, turns out if you just serve video without all the other bullshit the website feels great
@noiob yeah same experience with Dropout. The UX really sucks but at least things just load fine
@Siph nebula has great ux! I recently installed their android tv app and it's really nice too
@noiob yeah I've got a good time with it!
@noiob the thing is that React’s performance on client-side heavily depends on how much blocking stuff you got, so an app that has no third party components and is made by people who know what they’re doing will run quite snappy, despite the fact that it’s duplicating the entire DOM and the respective render loops
@xerz what's "blocking stuff"
@xerz oh wait blocking as in async/await right
@noiob yep, pretty much! people tend to abuse stuff like useEffect too much because it’s easy when you’re ignorant of basic threading concepts
can't wait for them to bog it down with tracking and ads because y'know, venture capital
