UX and performance are tightly correlated. Don't treat them as distinct concerns. We've all used software that's slow and becomes a huge turnoff. Fast software makes for happy users. Or at least, avoids making them mad!

Agreed. Probably totally different domain but one project on my list is to write a local-first JIRA TUI for work because I find the Confluence web UIs excruciatingly sluggish. Nit: We actually have causation and not correlation here, right? Good perf contributes to good UX but not so vice versa.

> Good perf contributes to good UX but not so vice versa. Good point! There's certainly fast apps that are terrible to use.
