Next time someone sends me a link that takes more than a minute to open in Netsurf with our 5kb/s internet, I'll just answer TB;DR

Too Bloated, Didn't Read.

@neauoire (I suspect that that's me, sorry. I should have added a warning)

@neauoire Out of curiosity (I know my site is very light), how long does it take to open paritybit.ca for you?

@neauoire this reminds me of an initiative I have tried to start multiple times in my professional roles

Twice a year, for one week each, every engineer’s workstation is artificially limited to dialup-like speeds so they all have to feel the pain of their bloated web pages.

It never really caught on sadly.

@neauoire Ow, that's somehow even /worse/ than our 15KB/s we get after running out of data on our phone.

@tinspin LTE but we're picking up a very distant tower that must be behind the mountain range where we're at.

@neauoire One trick could be to get a 4G modem with an antenna connection and just use your VHF antenna? Might not work because of the length of the cable but worth a try?
