Everything is slower across every single facet of computing. Something is happening. I have a brand new Mac Studio M4 Max with 64gb of ram and every site is still slower than it was on a 2011 Mac Book Pro.
I remember using the internet 15 years aho, and things were definitely slower. I also wasn’t using the internet to run full-blown spreadsheets and design tools back then. My M series Macs are the snappiest computers I’ve used (minus my desktop when it runs Linux, but not windows).
