Computers are so fast but yet most applications feel slower than the ones I used on my 100MHz Pentium in the 90s. That's broken.

How many multiple-megabyte images could you display in 24-bit color at 1080p on that Pentium while scrolling? How good was the support for Unicode and non-English languages? How many streaming videos and ads could you see at one time? When you downloaded kilobytes of markup, and in turn request a dozen more things from a server on the other side of the planet, how long exactly did it take to parse and load? How many times did you chat with people and embed pictures in your conversation, while listening to streaming internet radio?

Hint: computers are actually doing quite a bit more in apps these days than they used to, and its only through the good luck of hiding this fact most of the time that you can make such silly complaints.

Computers are close to two orders of magnitude faster than they were 20 years ago. It would be shocking if the stuff you mention wasn't possible.

But it's a silly complaint that some web apps can't keep up with my typing? Please.

There are many websites. Frankly, it is silly. It should be obvious that ∃site∈internet.slow(site) is true and further that it's boring.
