The website is unusably laggy on my 2023 model phone
#WhispHub – a platform for makers who build in public

That and it seems like the privacy policy and most other blurbs around the website are most likely LLM generated
Plus the project is closed source, so there isn't much meaningful feedback to give beyond this

I see. I'd recommend rewriting the privacy policy regardless. And the website's performance (though I haven't tried desktop dev tools to figure out why it's so bad)
wraith verge
The website's performance?
Tell me more

Try opening it on your phone and scrolling it's pretty obvious

Hm you're the first who has a problem like this… but thanks for the feedback!

Aren't projects required to be open source here?
I am getting a solid amount of Vibes from this lol

Aren't projects required to be open source here?
Technically no
They just usually are because that's the spirit
I don't know why anyone coding outside of their employment still has a need for closed source projects

Not what nerd-sniping means

I know I was joking

I think Anden might've mispoken slightly though. The rules don't say that, anywhere. In fact "open-source repository" is merely a type tag alongside blog, video, etc.
Though we could ask <@&631915156854538260> if there's been a change of stance regarding showcase posts of closed source projects

Thats fair tbh
Wouldn't that mean anyone could just post whatever and say "I made it with Rust"?

...yes

you might notice that there's no tag for closed-source repository

but yeah we should probably clarify

I also think the channel rules are a little out of the way visually
Perhaps a Rules (Must Read) post can be made that gets pinned to the top of the forum so that it's immediately visible
and more easily navigated too

Hmm, I think we did decide for the collaboration posts, but I don't think we did for showcase

let's move this question to #1112766051927728178 please so more people can give input

e.g., you have to notice the arrow and then notice that it means you can tap the channel to view the rules. This means a lot of people will entirely miss it

that's your standard for unusably laggy? /gen
that just looks like discord to me

The astute observer (i.e., someone with eyes) might notice me opening GitHub in another tab and it working perfectly fine
But yes, because there's full second + of latency between me moving my finger and the website actually scrolling
I would classify this as unusable

I mean of course many websites are much better but it's a sliding scale
hard pivot
I wasn't meaning to imply that
Just i seem to encounter things that work very slowly at least not never
Maybe my standards are too low

Most peoples standards are too low because its now the average lol

It is the single most unresponsive website I've ever opened
but who's to say
I mostly just use the internet to read articles

The website is responsive.
It works.

did you test in multiple browsers or with multiple devices
it clearly doesn't work on mine

What's your device and browser?

Interesting
i'll admit, i'm not an expert on what makes sites fast or slow on different devices
the only personal experiences i have are 5e.tools not loading on my phone and speedrun.com outright crashing it
silent trail
never had this level of performance issue with anything else I've ever had open
so i can't say either

It is weird, on my same Firefox + android (and mostly same spec) it is just fine

i tried it on chrome
and while it is less choppy, it's still very much not smooth to scroll the page
green garden
Hmm I wish I had the ability to use remote dev tools to look at the resource usage on mine
silent trail
And just to be extra sure
I also tried a private tab with extensions disabled
result was the same though
maybe slightly better but by no means smooth
