Tell HN: Chrome Slows Down on Hacker News on My High-End Windows 11 PC

I'm running into a frustrating issue where Google Chrome slows down or goes into a loading state while reading big threads on hackernews. (For example this post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41002195)

All I have to do is start clicking the minimize button on threads and my entire PC stops responding for a solid 30 seconds.

I have a really beefy setup so its most likely not from there

Has anyone else run into this?
