Really like it but it feels very sluggish which I assume is due to the size of the content. Clicking on FPV Drone seems to result in 192 mb being fetched. Despite this, clicking on a thumbnail still takes time to fetch the full size. I don't know if a more optimised format would be enough or a TikTok layout would be better suited but it does impact the experience negatively. Love the project though.

It's the small screen since the site loads as many images as is required to fill it. On a full-size monitor, it's a lot more and hence takes a lot more time.
