I'm a developer and I just read this whole site on mobile to see if there's anything I don't know. Initial load was clunky, fonts have initially not been showing up but after that it works pretty well on mobile.
Yep wasn't suggesting it wouldn't work fine on mobile, just addressing the 'perf' criticism which to me, isn't really relevant to most devs when they would tend to use that resource on their dev machines.
I nearly closed it when it it loaded this bad and I saw the fonts missing. But scrolled a bit and fonts showed up. So 'perf' criticism is valid because it's so bad on this site that it affected usability for me.
But you didn't close it? So you're not even one negative datapoint. I don't think any rational dev would close a useful developer resource based on perf reasons.
Again, I'm merely replying to the initial comment which was needlessly negative and frankly a tiring trope on HN (rudely criticising something unimportant about the site regardless of its intended use).
Honestly, your going on about it is worse. Sometimes a negative comment just comes out badly. It happens. And even then, taken in good faith, at least it's somewhat constructive. This whole sub-thread of you arguing against people doing exactly that, is off-topic good for nothing ballast. That is a tiring and persistent HN-trope I can really do without.
