 I have used up all my data plan for this month, so my speed is capped at 64 Kbps. This is a friendly reminder to all web developers: Keep your bundle sizes small, only ship what you need, compress your images, YOU DON'T NEED REACT IN YOUR F-ING BLOG, test your sites on slow connections and slow phones. You using a Galaxy S22 Ultra with an unlimited 5G plan doesn't mean everyone else does too. 23 comments
@kytta crackhead conspiracy theory alert: maybe the phone manufacturers pay social media devs to make them send more data than possibly needed just to slow them down and get people to pay for more data  How do the phone manufacturers get anything from using more data? You mean the service providers I guess, but they aren't the same people that make the phones, or at least it's not here. @kytta@fosstodon.org S20 FE should be fine enough โ:peek_sage:โโ:scared_felix:โ @kytta I get 2gb per day. But that doesn't seem enough, cause somebody thought it is okay to put 10mb of javascript for just 500words of blog post.  > Keep your bundle sizes small You mostly don't need JS in the first place. You definitely don't need any for a blog, unless you're doing interactive WebGL animations explaining how things work.

@kytta YELLING AT OTHERS IS VERY IMPOLITE AND NOT WELCOME HERE! In addition, it does not bring you more data volume or a faster connection. @kranzkrone @kytta I didn't mean to yell back, but make you realize that it's not a comfortable feeling. You always achieve more with your counterpart if you argue in a friendly and factual manner. "Fuc*ing..." doesn't do anyone any good.

BTW, another reason to choose Mastodon over Twitter. The toot above took like 2 seconds to post, whether a (shorter) tweet would take a minute to be posted (if it even could be posted without failing with a network error) ๐คทโโ๏ธ
