i think about this every time i open outlook on my phone and have to wait a full minute for it to load and hopefully not crash, versus how it worked more or less instantly on my phone ten years ago. gajillions of dollars spent on improved hardware and improved network speed and capacity, ans for what? machines that do the same thing in twice the amount of time if you're lucky
Well obviously it has to ping 20 different servers from 5 different mega corporations!
And verify your identity three times, for good measure, to make sure you're you and not someone that should be censored.
This seems like a problem with your phone tbh.
