Issue: Special:Recentchanges sometimes (maybe about half the time) takes a good 5-10 seconds to load and will sometimes break (complaining about not being able to fetch updates) after pressing the Show New Changes button. This mainly occurs after I've been messing in the the css on the page with devtools, but that shouldn't (I feel) have a major effect. Firefox Nightly, 76.0a1 (2020-03-13)

UCP's RC is more featureful than our current RC and WikiActivity but I feel like with the removal of WikiActivity performance should be a massive concern. Checking the "Use non-JavaScript interface" in the UCP Recent Changes Prefsection will probably alleviate the issue, but at that point you lose what made the newer RC a good tradeoff
