It is an awful experience. Mobile data is often sketchy, but these bloated sites don't render a single thing until all the twenty tons of front end crap is downloaded, and all to view a tiny static chunk of text. But hey, they got to use react, a metric shit ton of the latest CSS wankery, and it is connected to every social meejia platform!

Silently downloading updates in the background is another frustrating trend. I've had data caps get blown not due to my actions, but due to updates.

I think good design should include designing for the those with impairments or those who don't live in a big city with uncapped broadband.
