I grew up during the dial up era of internet and remember how insane it was each time the technology improved, broadband, dsl, fiber etc.

I wouldn’t expect pages to instantly load, but I have to imagine all the data farming is causing sites to be extremely bogged down.

      It looks like they’re making a separate call for each user avatar in the comments, for example.

      The browser does that. How would you expect to get the images except for one by one? It has always been the case for as long as images have been supported.
