My exact complaint. What is the "handmade" community? At first I thought he was talking about woodworking or knitting.
Also the reddit comparison is great, but I wish he would have talked about why the slop is there in the first place.
I'm pretty sure new reddit isn't optimized for speed, it's optimized for analytics and datamining.
I bet they use all those backend calls to get really granular session info. When something is super slow, it's not that it's unoptimized, but rather it's optimized for money over user experience.
