@grishka well its not fair because you have so much experience from VK and Mastodon, but for most developers haha.

Also, you can render server side, but SPA is cheaper for most fediverse use cases IMO (and also less security risk, with all the recent react server vulns lol)

@Hierarchy @dansup in simple words, it's the type of website that keeps showing you spinners after your browser's UI tells you it's done loading. Instead of generating HTML on the server, it makes API requests from your browser and generates the page on your device. Because an SPA does more work than an old-school server-side-rendered dynamic website, it feels much slower, with no way around that.

Mastodon is an SPA as well.
