Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

The article argues that GitHub's frontend is bloated and slow, exposing reliability and performance issues despite public uptime claims. It compares GitHub to GitLab and Codeberg using HAR analysis, pagespeed results, and RAM usage, and advocates optimization through code slimming, compression, and better frontend practices. It also coins 'enshittification' and calls for accountability.
