#2This is part of why HTTP+HTTPS still has a place for non-commercial non-institutional just for fun/education websites. HTTP+HTTPS is also significantly less fragile than HTTPS-only over any years+ long timescales. Eventually even the tool keeping your CA TLS cert up to date itself will stop working or the root cert will expire, etc. HTTP+HTTPS means the site keeps being accessible. If the threat model allows it, it's better.

#3I was under the impression that you can MITM HTTPS, it just requires the client to trust the proxy (by installing its CA). It's mostly used in corporate environments for monitoring & blocking, but it should work for caching proxies too.

#5Ironically for what seems to be an article about webpage performance, this site runs horribly on my phone (Android, Firefox) - something is broken with the scroll, it's choppy and unusable. Anyone else?

#6This is a common pattern in the development of the web now. The people pushing development are focused on profitable users. People in rural areas of third world countries are not a priority. Disabled users will get the legal minimum accommodation. People with older hardware are usually not commercially important - cheaper tog et rid of them.

Try to make this MITM caching work consistently for all the computers (phones iot etc) of your home.
Then think about doing the same for a school.

It's a bit choppy for me too. Reminds me of those sites that has a static, non-scrolling, background image.
Samsung S21, Firefox with uBlock Origin.

Android Firefox, no problems here. I do have ubo installed if that makes a difference.
