Does Apple deliberately make Safari run slowly with Google apps/sites

You should probably add more detail to your question — to which the answer is "no" — but from its context you appear to be using a personally owned Mac for the convenience of your employer. If I am correct in that assumption, not only is that choice an entirely optional one, it is a horrible idea.

Either compel your employer provide a separate computer for their use, or purchase one for their use. The choice is yours.

Furthermore, if you are compelled to use Google products, don't buy a Mac. Buy a Chromebook.

Google apps like messages.google.com run unusably slowly on my new computer. Does Apple deliberately do this to punish people for using Google? I'm ready for the apocalypse this is so annoying

Because...reasons..., I use Gmail through Safari on my Mac. I do not have a problem.

If I'm accessing my work Gmail, I use Chrome, not because it's any because it's what we have at work and it's just easier. Also, it saves switching between Google accounts on one browser. I haven't had any issues with either.

Absolutely not! Google apps and sites are big bags of hurt whose sole purpose is you collect your personal data and sell it to advertisers. That’s why they run slowly. It takes time to gather your data and prepare it for sale.

I personally avoid Google like the plague.

The fact that you choose to use a service that was not designed by Apple is your choice.

Good luck! 👋🏼😉

Hello~ Not deliberately if that’s what you mean…

Using Google is punishment enough. Why would anyone ask for it?

⇡ Completely agreed. 💯
