minus-squareZak@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up14·2 months agoAccording to a memory snapshot from Firefox 126 devtools, with uBlock Origin, immediately after a fresh page load: old.reddit.com: 52.54 mb new.reddit.com: 93.48 mb lemmy.world: 54.44 mb old.lemmy.world: 20.25 mb I imagine both versions of Reddit would be worse without the adblocker. There are multiple frontends for Lemmy, and I did not test them all. Other browsers might differ slightly.

minus-squareZak@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16·edit-22 months agoLemmy.world hosts at least five web frontends, which are in the frontpage sidebar: The default Lemmy UI https://a.lemmy.world - Alexandrite UI https://photon.lemmy.world - Photon UI https://m.lemmy.world - Voyager mobile UI https://old.lemmy.world - A familiar UI It’s possible to use other frontends as well, which don’t necessarily have to be hosted by your Lemmy server.
