I tried this exact scenario and didn’t see any difference in load times. I’m using an ad blocker and it’s definitely sluggish, but switching to a Chrome user agent made no difference.
Kaiju whisperer. Galactic backpacker. My other ride is a TARDIS.

Linux users truly are the vegans of the tech world.
The same happens to Chinese app stores on Android phones. Just companies trying to throw up obstacles for their competition.
Between this and antivirus software flagging cracked software, I wish security apps would focus on security instead of weaponizing consumer trust.
I tried having a conversation with ChatGPT. It’s annoyingly predictable. Imagine the most boring, chronically helpful therapist who is always brimming with obvious advice, and that’s what you get.
I get that people are lonely, but we’re still much closer to ELIZA than Her.

There’s a form of recency bias at play. We tend to compare recent middling movies with the ones we remember from the past, which tend to be the exceptions. But trust me, there were some very shitty blockbusters in prior decades as well.
Give it a decade or two, and people will remember the '20s as a decade of amazing blockbusters. I mean, heck, we had Barbie and Oppenheimer in theaters at the same time just a few weeks ago. The fact these two movies were released the same weekend is gonna blow people’s minds in twenty years.
It also reminds me of crypto. Lots of people made money from it, but the reason why the technology persists has more to do with the perceived potential of it rather than its actual usefulness today.
There are a lot of challenges with AI (or, more accurately, LLMs) that may or may not be inherent to the technology. And if issues cannot be solved, we may end up with a flawed technology that, we are told, is just about to finally mature enough for mainstream use. Just like crypto.
To be fair, though, AI already has some very clear use cases, while crypto is still mostly looking for a problem to fix.
Made the switch to Aegis a little while back. I like it a lot.
