Here is the website: https://www.stormkit.io

Looking forward to hear your feedback. Thank you very much

Feels sluggish and scrolling is painful on my galaxy s6. It might be an old phone, but even so I can't recall any other websites being this slow.

Thank you for your feedback. We did not catch that, because we mainly focus on Desktop. Your point is added to our issue list. Really appreciate it!

Scrolling is not sufficient consent to tracking/a privacy policy. Even if it were, the cookie box triggering, shadowing the entire page, and then having the only option on the box be "Okay, got it" wasn't a great user experience.

Thank you so much for this feedback. We will/have to change the banner, but do I understand you right: You just scrolled down and it automatically accepted the cookie? If yes, we also need to fix this.

Disliked the lazy load speed on mobile. Clicking through the feature tabs with the videos left me waiting for them to load (which I didn’t know would happen).

A placeholder with the “sheen” type effect might work so I know something is loading.

Thank you very much for testing and your feedback. We will include this in our issue list

Well first impression, I just navigated to the page in Safari on my MBP 2015 i7 2.2GHz and scrolling was incredibly slow...

This could be a Safari thing, as things are pretty smooth in edge for Mac.

The entire section above the fold re-renders on every scroll event, probably some non-gpu accelerated CSS property is changed.

Thank you for your observation. We are checking on how to fix this.

Great feedback, thank you so much. We need to figure out how to fix this first, because it seems to be a mobile and Safari problem. Are you having the same issues with other browsers?

Your website is not GDPR compliant.

Tracking must be opt-in (even for analytics) and consent must be freely given (so you can't nag/pressure users into giving consent because declining is too hard).

Ou wow, not sure how we missed this. Thank you so much for your feedback. We will fix this asap.
