Tangential to the post, but the pages on darklang.com are really fast. They load instantly. I clicked the Medium link and it took a couple seconds to load what was essentially a blank page.
The darklang.com homepage took 70 msec for DOMContentLoaded and was only 25.5 KB total page weight.
That's even including two fonts!
Hacker News is usually my gold standard for a lightweight fast page. And while HN is only 13 KB (no fonts), it's >400 msec for DOMContentLoaded.
