      A sub-thread re: @gatsbyjs. I looked at most of the Featured sites in the Gatsby showcase, and they're similarly pathological, each in their own way. The common thread is too much JS, enabled by NPM & Gatsby. Is there work happening to fix this, @kylemathews?https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1184945007477702656 …

My expectation for static site on this config is *easily* interactive in < 4s, and "good" is ~2s.

      ps thanks for the highlighting of this. Gatsby is so often the “poster child” of perf which is like making a monster truck the “poster child” of environmentally friendly transport.

      I wish @eleven_ty had the marketing that @gatsbyjs does. I reliably see good results from it (tho hard to say it's causal -- 11ty sites might be fast because folks who care about speed pick it). Next, Gatsby, and many of the other popular SSGs seem to be unsafe at any speed.

      I wouldn't make the claim that it is causal, yet! We have a bigger opportunity to make it so though

      Would absolutely ❤️ performance budget integration -- particularly if you could adopt relatively aggressive limits like these:https://github.com/slightlyoff/never_slow_mode#per-interaction-resource-limits …

      Comparing JavaScript usage to climate change is needlessly emotionally charged and, worse, the analogy doesn't hold up under scrutiny. Let's call this proposal what it is: a JavaScript austerity program. https://twitter.com/FronteersConf/status/1185099012128595970 …

          *backs away slowly* 🙃 Yeah, that's tough. I will say that it is empowering to be in a spot to help people make sites that will make a wider range of users’ experiences faster 👍

          Climate change is an interesting analogy. I consider myself an environmentalist (and vote and buy accordingly). But I personally avoid engaging with or supporting most environmental groups because I find the dialog too derisive and ineffectual.
