#2Slow as hell, to the point it does not load.
Isn't this the typical application you don't want to run as nocode? High loads, viral growth.

#3Is there no content?

#4I was gearing up to be irritated at seeing "no-code", but this was apparently built using a glorified WYSIWYG editor. That's really impressive, especially given how close it looks to what you set out to imitate. Nice work!

Still pending for me too. I'm going to assume this is here because of a voting ring

#6These tools seem pretty decent for non technical people to build and test out ideas.
If anything it forces them to think about their problems and recognise where complexity exists.

#7Not sure if it's my computer (Arch Linux, 5.13, i7-7700K, RTX 2080 Ti) but the page behaves the same in both Firefox and Chrome where it basically slows down the browser to a halt, seemingly contiuing doing HTTP requests forever (loaded the page once 3 minutes ago and it's still doing more requests to some ElasticSearch instance).
It is pretty amazing what you can accomplish with nocode tooling (like Bubble, that is being used here), but I think this demonstrates that we have a long way to go before production applications can be built with it. It is a pretty good starting point though, and with a little optimizations to Bubbles backends (and probably the way they render stuff/deal with the DOM) we can be pretty close to shipping nocode apps for average users.
None the less, nice work! The UI itself is pretty close which is inspiring to see, although the new reddit UX leaves plenty to ask for.

Actually it is the exact application to develop with no code. It is a clone of an existing website, where there are already 100s other clones, so it will extremely likely amount to nothing and not surpass 10 users, meaning the performance impact will not impact anyone.

Either that or it was really impressive for the few minutes it did load. Kind of hard to figure out at this point.
Though the fact that it grinds to a halt under high load is also interesting.
