  • Okay.

    But the UI scrolling shouldnt be affected by the server being hit by many requests imo. The only way I could see an impact is if the UI waits for something to load before allowing it to be scrolled in to view - but I’m no front end (app) dev. I did work on a content serving project as a full stack though, except that was a few years ago and browser based and only vanilla js and html on the front end. Still, scrolling issues were not impacted by content serving latency as it was easy to plug dummy tiles in until the server gave its content.

    The hotdog analogy doesn’t make sense to me as that would be a Lemmy instance (all content serving server) latency issue, not a jerboah app UI component issue?

    Spreading out over multiple instances is one option to reduce content serving latency, but it would also be interesting to see if a single instance can be distributed over multiple servers - I’m not sure of the lemmy capabilities at the moment though.
