ThumbHash: A very compact representation of an image placeholder. Store it inline with your data and show it while the real image is loading for a smoother loading experience. Similar to BlurHash. #WebPerf #JS

⚡ i wrote this a good while ago, but i still firmly believe it. any type of generalised score for performance, accessibility, user happiness or whatnots is bound to fail.
⛔ Of the pages that got a 90+ in Lighthouse in September 2021, 43% didn’t meet one or more Core Web Vitals threshold. Relying on Performance Score is not a bulletproof strategy and here’s why.

If websites weren't such a car crash of JavaScript, contending connections, over-engineering etc, I reckon 90% could get away with one reset/global/layout stylesheet and one per-page stylesheet (i.e. home.css, product.css, category.css) and that would be plenty fast and maintainable.
There'd be no need for critical CSS, complex bundling or inline styles.
...almost like how we used to build sites back in the 2000s, except with the benefits of h2/h3.
I have a superpower... finding sites with huge images 🙈
❌ Almost 80 MB in images
❌ An image larger than 19 MB
❌ With a Cache-Control=0


... TTFB gets a different meaning with 103 Early Hints!
TTFB now corresponds to your (faster) 103 Response, and no longer the 200 Response of your HTML.
Without implementing TTP you will be blind for your HTML performance

Before deploying 103 Early Hints my advise is to measure: "Time To Parsing" (TTP)
Without this new TTP you otherwise have a blindspot tracking HTML Performance.
As TTFB gets a different meaning...

Hi everyone, I'm Rodney.
While I'm not means an expert, I do know a number of things on #WordPress #WebPerf (website performance) and #a11y (accessibility).
If any of those interest you, then I'm happy to interact and most likely learn more.
Thanks @nathan for creating this instance.
The slides of my talk about #WebPagetest scripting at Hamburg #WebPerf meetup hosted by baqend are now available on Speakerdeck: https://speakerdeck.com/tbaldauf/exciting-webpagetest-scripting-webperf-meetup-hamburg-20230323
Hat tip to @PatMeenan, @andydavies et al. for continuously providing good documentation about WPT over the past decade! <3
Yes! I'll be speaking at @JNationConf in Coimbra #Portugal about the performance of JavaScript frameworks and meta-frameworks https://jnation.pt/sessions/#sz-session-428356 #webdev #webperf
🦩 The JavaScript main thread only handles one task at a time. Long tasks delay everything else, including user inputs. The shorter your Total Blocking Time, the more responsive your page feels.
Find out how to reduce TBT.
Only a few minutes away from presenting at #WebPerf meetup Hamburg about #WebPagetest scripting opportunities.

Seriously, do we need yet another version of Low Quality Image Placeholders?
Why do some people want to do additional work just to show useless colourful pixels to users, delaying the rendering of the actual image?
As a user, I hate LQIP. Single colour backgrounds are fine, though.
🖼️ Image optimisation can be a great first step to better web performance. Learn how to fully optimise images without sacrificing their quality.
⚡ i’m so excited about this: we just shipped a big improvement to third party reporting in @calibre.
third party tools & services have a huge impact on web performance, security, privacy and user experience.
the ability to compare how third parties vastly outgrow first-party (your own!) resources, analysing which categories or providers are main offenders is critical.
to illustrate, here’s a report for a site with 92 third parties:

⚡ optimising images is something anyone on your team can help with and it's a great starting point into the world of web performance.
i just published our revamped guide explaining:
🔹 why image optimisation is important
🔹 how to choose the right format
🔹 helpful tools for image compression
🔹 other strategies to lower the negative speed impact of imagery
It's always nice to get the chance to stretch my #WebPerf muscles. Even if it's on a friend’s #WordPress site and I'm not getting paid. 😉

📊 Saying the page doesn’t load fast enough doesn’t help; saying we need to hit a Time to First Byte of fewer than 300 milliseconds provides a target and spurs action.

Can multiple web workers boost the speed of your web application?
⚡ Interaction to Next Paint (INP) is still a fairly new metric measuring page responsiveness, which is tightly tied to good user experience.
now is a great time to start monitoring INP, so i wrote an explainer into how it’s calculated, what it measures and how to improve it!
🚦 We built the Core Web Vitals Checker so you could easily look up if your site passes the assessment. And because we love dynamic share cards, you can see the metrics as you share the report!
Here’s ours.
