Is it just me or whenever I open a link with a text fragment, the page is loaded just fine but it takes one or two seconds to actually scroll down to the highlighted text?

Usually in Chrome and when visiting sites that are not 100% pure text (e.g., bloated Confluence docs)

It is very annoying, yes.

Because of this bloat in Confluence, we actually just use it for editing and serve the content in a more lightweight way using the API and our own templates.

Yeah, even linking to a heading using its HTML ID (part of the pure HTML browser spec) was broken in Confluence for a while due to its fancy reimplementation of the concept of "serving a basic HTML document" in flashy React-y technologies. Though it works now.
