Just a random rant after another interminable delay.
I just loaded the home page of Daily Kos. According to a browser extension I've installed, 618 scripts loaded to display the page.
The site has been causing my browser to drag, becoming terribly slow for quite some time, but in the last couple of months, it's become intolerable. It reminds me of trying to download photos from the in-laws back in the days of dial-up. It's getting bad enough I may switch to the mobile version of the site, instead of the regular version. I won't be able to comment, but at least it'll not interfere with everything else I'm trying to do on my computer - because when the browser seizes, it can even take significant time to switch to another application.
I sure hope dk5 is much better behaved.
