Late reply, but this is the exact reason why products as Wefwef usually do have dedicated and optimised marketing websites :)

As a web dev myself, I wanted to add to that that Google’s Page Speed insights are sometimes a little misleading or at least have to be interpreted and taken with a grain of salt. Sure, a site / web app might be marked as slow because certain thresholds aren’t met, without the user even noticing that the app is “slow”.

As an example, apps which load in lots of third party content. As a user, you would expect them to have this slight delay when opening and will be fine with it without perceiving it as slow.

It’s really more important for marketing websites because google will rank your page worse when it perceives the page as slow.

Quick heads up: if you loved Apollo (I can relate…) check out wefwef.app - it’s a pretty good clone for Lemmy!

Second ever comment here. I watched Apollo shut down live, went to sleep and then immediately tried opening it up again after waking up, out of habit - girlfriends still asleep and I got so used to browsing Reddit for a bit before we get up on weekends, it has become muscle memory.

Using Wefwef currently and it’s nice, awesome work especially for a web app.

I am just in the process of buying my first road bike, so I’d love to be able to do a 50km tour by the end of the summer. Let’s see if I can make it!
