You're not kidding. This webapp is so fast (after the initial load) that I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if the Reddit mobile website intentionally adds sleeps/delays as some have jokingly suspected in the past. On this site, I can actually scroll through posts or collapse comment threads without wondering if my touch input and/or browser are frozen.

New Reddit doesn't need sleep/delays, it's already slow as molasses heh.

If not for old.reddit.com, my time on Reddit would've gone way down :/

I wish that was the only problem with the new Reddit ... it frequently crashes my browser. No other website does this.

This sounds like a browser bug tbh.

Not my experience... Touching “Communities” on my iPhone takes a while to load.

Edit: to add, while touching the buttons for the different sections, it seems sometimes my touches are not registering, requiring me to try again.

A brand new site doesn't have many features yet. The more features you add the slower it'll get.
