I have yet to see a gatsby site that isn't just plain text crack a score of higher than 80 / 100.
There are obviously benefits if you find it easy to use and performance isn’t a concern, just saying the marketing of “its fast” really doesn’t seem to ring true and with the core web vitals update it might not be the best idea to use gatsby if you want to rank well naturally.
They've put an insane amount of work into Gatsby towards performance and even then, core web vitals updated and you're hosed lol ... this shows the danger of completely relying on a tool/framework like this, no matter how brilliant it is.
Well their marketing is good (same goes for the writer of this article) but if you see it as the silver bullet and a free lunch then think again.
This article is a joke. Headspace took a solid 6 seconds to load on mobile.
Looks more like some, if not all of these sites are not optimizing their image assets correctly, which is what many times causes the slow down of websites. Gatsby isn't the problem here
I made a pit stop at Gatsby but ultimately end up going Next.js
It is much better and simpler to understand.
Are you sure? Have you tried Nuxt.js, Next.js, Jekyll, and any other similar stuff before going on with the "framework of the future" thing?
If you guys don't like working with React, try Gridsome, which is basically Vue equivalent of Gatsby, with similar APIs. Also, stop reading all the negative comments below. I've tested site generators and they indeed run pretty fast, but you have to make sure that you are optimizing your website assets to be as small as possible and reduce network requests. For some pages that use a lot of SVG icons, I just embed them into the page rather than use img tag.
The memes are brilliant, but "EVERYONE's favourite framework React"? read this: dev.to/jfbrennan/really-why-react-...

Nuxtjs and Vue if you want performance.
Gatsby is great work though!
A great article. I think web developers are turning into Gatsby.
:) trash article i think. Nextjs is much better than this.
