Hi @rustic flicker, thanks for your suggestion to improve the site

#

Unfortunately, the developer team in charge of Typeracer doesn't interact with this discord, so none of us here can ensure that your suggestion will be implemented

#

But, I can forward it to the devs via DMs, and maybe they'll be able to do something about it

#

To help with that, can you please tell me the exact Typeracer pages and API endpoints you were referring to?

#

couldn't I upload image

You should be able to now

yeah see this when I click on the second tab my scores so it fetches the score of the user

#

but here you could see there are two paginations (navigation button) newer and older basically it doesn't fetch all the data at once it continuously fetches the new data again and again on cilck of the button

#

In easy word we are calling the api again and again on the click of button and this is not good as if you are using some paid hosting like amazon so it will causes you a great amount of bill

#

and when I reload this website it fetches the data again so it means it calls the api again but here it is of no use because it could use the same data and show it until and unless it is changed

#

So in this way we could save some of the bandwitch and as it is a very large website so it will be very helpful to improve the perfomance as well

#

btw thanks for putting it in consideration

Alright, I'll forward this advice. Again I can't guarantee results unfortunately

#

Thanks!
