Damn - Codeberg is snappy! It's as fast as Github used to be 10 years ago. Server rendered pages. No AJAX-style slow updates. Love it.

  This was the very first thing I noticed when we (the Zig team) started seriously trialing Codeberg. Honestly, the transition was worth it just for the ability to navigate the website without a 3-5 second wait every time I click a link.

    Codeberg performance is not good today - 12 seconds per click before any update. Not sure if they're able to scale.

      I think this thread caused a bit of a hug of death; I too was seeing pretty bad page loads earlier today, but that seems to have sorted itself out. Understandable imo, because Codeberg simply haven't had to deal with this level of traffic so far. I'm optimistic that they'll be able to scale as (thanks to projects like Zig making the switch) their needs grow.

  Github is backend rendered too...

    GitHub seems to be the worst of both worlds - partially rendered on the server, but then the frontend inexplicably pulls in additional data like... commit messages?? It's a double hit of latency, and for bonus points, the commit messages won't load at all if your browser is slightly out of date

    It was. Open a huge diff in it now and go grab some dinner while your browser tries to render it. I don’t hate GitHub or anything, but its UI is way slower now than it use to be.

  Not snappy at all for me.
