'Seems faster' is an within joke and meme started on Windows Fundamental back in mid-2013 by commenters and staff writers. Information technology is typically used in comments regarding app updates, although information technology has expanded to a larger, ironic usage for just about, well, everything.

Origins

Back in 2022, the Facebook app for Windows Phone was going under major revisions by Microsoft to get the app on par with iOS and Android. A Facebook beta app plan was created for rapid evolution. After a few beta builds, the new features would exist merged into the official, public version of the app. As a event, the app was frequently updated, often on a weekly basis

The comment 'seems faster' was jokingly given by users because the Facebook app changelog would note "functioning improvements and bug fixes", which is vague for those looking for more detail. People would so make comments that the app does experience faster, even though in that location was no bear witness that information technology was quicker in terms of actual performance.

Subsequently multiple updates with "performance improvements and bug fixes", information technology became a running joke that the app 'seems faster'. Thus, the meme was built-in.

Later on, the 'seems faster' quip would expand to all Windows Phone app updates that lacked a specific changelog. Although it began to annoy many people in article comments, the usage was understood equally a frustrated response to the lack of advice from app developers.

In March of 2022, the 'seems faster' joke became solidified in Windows Fundamental lore with the release of a limited-edition tee-shirt. The shirt featured 'seems faster' on the back along with the 'ninja cat riding a unicorn' on the front, itself another new meme started earlier that yr.
