Web performance isn’t going to save you in this crisis.

But if you’re building a software product, chances are you’re relatively unaffected. And in this case, having a quick app is more important than ever. Internet is slowing down due to increased demand, and people are holding on to their phones for longer – so if your app is slow, your users will be affected by it.

And slow app means worse business.

Notion app and my laptop OS take the same time to boot.

Beautiful application but it’s tooooo slow😔
