Don't use reddit's chat system? Block it and save 500kb / 6s on page loads When reddit gets bogged down (like it is for me right now), page loads can take exceptionally long. Turns out their chat system is 50% of the page size, and was taking over 6 seconds to load. If you add the following custom filter to your uBlock Origin (Dashboard, My filters), it'll stop all the crazy chat garbage from loading - and who uses it anyways?
