People definitely notice speed and performance. They won’t complain about it generally, sure… but there’s plenty of data and case studies on the fact that users care https://nitropack.io/blog/post/web-performance-matters-case-...

>People definitely notice speed and performance.

There's sort of a "Maslow's Hierarchy of User Needs" that exists in software though. So long as the user can do something, and their immediate needs are met, performance concerns are just a small annoyance. And generally they will continue to ask for more features rather than performance improvements as long as the app remains usable.
