Your site is really slow. I honestly thought it was broken when I first went, no login link to be seen at all.

This is why you should avoid making a SPA unless you know what you're doing, if you're going to use one at least put a spinner or something so it's clear the site's doing something.

The site doesn't have much traffic right now and is running entirely on serverless lambda, it's likely you arrived while it was idle and had to wait for it to wake up...

def should improve the loading state for when it hasn't woken up yet.
