This Needs To Be Stopped!

[Benton]

I hate going to websites where people have these irrelevant loading screens for no reason at all. Why add a loading screen on your site to make it look like it's doing something important and cool even though it's not. It's a fucking static page FFS. You're not Microsoft. Your website isn't booting up Windows 10 for the time lol. This needs to be stopped. No one likes to visit a website where every page has a loading screen. Go to a page and see a fucking loading screen. That shit isn't cool. Especially when your site is probably most likely fucking async with no backend so it's not like you're waiting for a process to finish so It can go to the next. C'mon guys. We need to do better. This just bothered me. Tell me what you think.

I read "This Needs To Be Stopped! " and thought about it then yelled "TRUMP". Then I clicked.

Vip Since you like to dislike. How are loading screens on websites good in any way? From a developers standpoint. I can see. Yeh it's cool and makes stupid people think your website is actually doing something big even though it's not. But for people who come to your website to visit. No one wants to see that shit.

You got a site for a reference that we can all make fun of?

Are you talking about the CloudFlare?

No lol. I'm talking about people who add loading screens to their sites. Every page you go on. It's like a 2-3 second loading screen just to look cool.[DOUBLEPOST=1508891624][/DOUBLEPOST]

Learning React RN but that doesn't mean I can't make an opinion.

It looks good. I just find it pointless but aye. That's my opinion.[DOUBLEPOST=1508893082][/DOUBLEPOST]

Here's the thing some websites put loading pages, because it takes time to load all the data depending on the speed of the server and how much data is going in or out.

Correct. But like I said above if you actually read. If you have a static website with no backend. You're not really retrieving data from a database.

I'd rather see some part of a website, than no website at all.

I saw that link, I know what a loading screen is. I am confused about you saying that MCM has one, as I never see it.

I never said anything about MCM lol. I'm not in suggestions. This is just a random thread in general discussion about something I had on my mind. This has nothing to do with MCM. This is just about some websites in general.

lol you don't need a backend for the need for a loading screen.
You can use a loading screen while assets load, which would look 10x better
