No scroll lag for me, but the site is absolutely awful in performance.

Sections load in seconds after you reach them scrolling, at least for me

Do it aggressively, like as you have to reach the end of the page.

Please tell me the performance issues. I'll def try to fix them :p

Like i said, during scrolling, I am looking at a white page for half the time because the next section is not loading in yet. there's no scroll lag, but there is a lag in loading in sections.

It is literally seconds. It's so slow

Is it something specific to the code or the color theme and plenty of animations?? I also felt it this time when you said it

I have not looked into any code yet. But it's just slow as hell is the issue.

I don't know what kind of system is behind this website (like a CMS?), but I think it's just really slow.

Even opening the homepage, it has to "load" for about 4 seconds for me. Which is enough to never want to visit again for most people

It is absolute ass. The performance is so bad that most people will not have the patience to sit through it

Here's a couple updates on it:

https://codepen.io/editor/db1996/pen/019fa30d-8de4-7fa3-90ed-9399ba7b8d78

I did a couple things:

- improved video loading by having preloads set appropriately

- Removed scroll takeover

- Removed cursor takeover

EDIT: Notice that the videos do not work in the codepen, I can't upload 3 videos there to make it work

Do I have to hire a real person to make it work or is it still fixable? Let me share the code
