Howdy, everyone! It kinda feels like it's a good time for an updated #introduction, no?
Name's Jason. I'm the fella behind `simian.rodeo`, a place for sad-eyed space cowpokes. Registrations are (kind of) open. I'll explain more here:

My other loves include: my wife Sarah, our three chihuahuas, good (and bad) cinema, audiobooks, rooting for the #Lakers, #Dodgers, & #LAFC, and democratic socialism.
Finally, a LoAF explainer I can understand! Thank you, @andydavies!
Historically, the biggest issue with RUM is that it captures a lot of data but it's hard to tease out what's actionable. The Long Animation Frames (LoAF) API is an evolutionary leap forward for RUM diagnostics, because it lets you find and fix the third parties and other scripts that hurt your #pagespeed and #UX. The only downside to LoAF is that it's tricky to wrap your head around.

WooCommerce 9.9 met le paquet sur les perfs côté admin : lazy loading des composants React, exécution JS plus efficace, rendu affiné…
Résultat : un back-office bien plus rapide, en particulier pour les boutiques avec du volume. Une évolution bienvenue pour améliorer l’UX sans toucher au front.

Et si on arrêtait de traquer le moindre ko dans nos images ? @remkus rappelle que, passé un certain seuil (WebP + compression correcte), l’optimisation d’image offre peu de gains réels.

Do you still minimize HTML? I think it's particularly worth minimizing if your pages are lightweight. I like how https://github.com/wilsonzlin/minify-html has a --preserve-brace-template-syntax option to keep templating working

Calculating losses due to site slowdowns isn't as simple, but you can still get an idea of what those losses might be.
Scroll down this post to find a formula you can use to estimate how site slowdowns can hurt your revenue:

A surprising number of people aren't aware that the consent banners on their pages hurt #ux and #seo. That's because consent banners delay LCP for a lot of pages.
The result? Your visitors have a slow experience, which sucks for them. And because LCP is a Google search ranking factor, it also sucks for you.
