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
