Comment on Project Bluefin: an immutable, developer-focused, Cloud-native Linuxparent

One could argue that the information page you're profiling is designed for maximum attention grabbing, and is for an OS that is based on containers, development, and a combination of the two. If you're primarily a kuberbetes dev interested in working and reproducing locally, you probably have the resources on your machine to render this smoothly and properly. And have a fast enough connection to make the bandwidth claims negligible. In that way, I guess it's good gatekeeping for who and what should run Bluefin. I recently learned this myself after installing Bluefin DX on both a low resource machine and my main dev box. Protip: probably should be used only on your main dev box at the moment

It's a web page. It's not even a web app its just scrollable text interspersed with video and links. You don't really have to "optimize" it to not hit the CPU on a 6 core desktop computer, use 400MB of RAM, or lag on a phone. It's not a technical trade off its just 5 minute job that probably should have been a 15 minute job.
