Source code... for a website?
Subscription software. Tracking software. Ad tools. Promotion tools. Tools for journalists.
The website is just what you see.
Yeah, I guess I didn't consider all the other operational shit that goes into providing content and funding for the website.
It’s why our PCs have gotten insanely fast but websites still load like fucking trash. All the back end spying shit takes up a ton of cpu cycles. If you don’t already have em run ublock origin and no script and the internet is so fucking speedy 😆
I hadn't noticed but then again I run Ublock Origin on Firefox.
Yeah. You got yourself covered no script helps with JavaScript being pesky. But breaks a lot of shit tbh.
You can still make it work, it's just more stuff to click on. I used to use NoScript too, but eventually stopped using it.
That's not what makes websites slow. It's React.
Retards with React. "I'm optimizing user experience"
Oh haven’t heard of this will check it out.
Anything more complicated than a static website is going to have a significant amount of server-side code.
Also, the article explains that it's not just the website, but ALL of their repos, which would include their smartphone apps, backend tools, etc.
