I’ve had more websites, even from big names, crash my entire browser or PC in the last 6 months than ever before.
Yup. Websites and apps are breaking in strange ways I’d never seen before. And only in the past several months has it started to happen.
One that I can think of off the top of my head is Rotten Tomatoes
Browsing for movies/TV shows has been broken for weeks now. No matter how you try to sort them (e.g. most popular, highest rated, or new releases), it gives you literally all of them, in alphabetical order, starting with the “#” symbol.
Been like this for weeks. I’ve noticed in the past few days or so that sometimes it’ll give you maybe 8 that fit the sorting criteria, before moving to movies with titles like “#Alive” that came out years ago.
Rotten tomatoes is a special kind of hell. The reviews section is coded like absolute trash. It first loads a bunch of reviews. Then, when you click the load more button, it loads a bunch more, and goes through a really slow (and compute heavy, for some reason) JavaScript loop through every previously loaded review, and the newly loaded ones. I guess it does that to build the HTML from the list of reviews from an API or something. It’s bearable for the first few pages, but after 20 pages, the loop takes so much time to complete that librewolf warns me the tab may have crashed. You can just wait and it ends up loading, after making my PC sweat for minutes. I don’t have a very old PC.
