Buttery smooth on MBPRO 2019, Safari.

Maybe you have a spec of dust under one of the keys on your keyboard that is causing the site to think you are trying to do something?

I don't think so. I've never had any site, even ones that use complex animations like Stripe's site bring my machine to a crawl like this. I'm pretty confident it's the Canvas animation causing this. I disabled JS and the site runs fine.

Sorry, I was just making fun of the specific model laptop. I'm on a 2016 model, and my s,d,f,t, and left-cmd key caps all come off while typing. I would love to see how much it is going to cost me to have fixed, but I've had to live with it since all of the Mac Stores in my area were closed. Now, I'm just used to it even though my WPM has taken a major hit.
