If the worst thing you can say about a git hosting provider is that the performance of their blog is worse than the performance of their git servers, I think they're probably doing an okay job.

While this is true, we do care about performance tremendously, and the animation not having good performance cuts against that, so I think it's a very fair criticism. Paying attention to details matters.

That's reasonable. I mostly just found the framing to be unfair rather than the criticism itself; it feels kind of disingenuous to try to draw a connection between performance of git and performance of a webpage IMO

No one has agreed to this premise. You have invented it out of nowhere.

I'd argue that you invented some sort of link between "performance of git" and "performance of websites" that is not at all a premise I accept either, so it's not that unreasonable for me to point out that I think it's silly.
