Depuis le 19 mai 2014, la fine équipe du service @pixelsfr du Monde documente les révolutions numériques et comment, pour le meilleur comme pour le pire, elles changent la société.

On raconte ces dix années dans un papier fleuve (qui met du coup quelques secondes à charger, patience 💪).

@CorentinLamy @pixelsfr expert web perf dans la place : la longueur du format ne devrait pas affecter la vitesse de chargement (en respectant les bonnes pratiques du web, on ne charge que ce qui est immédiatement ou rapidement visible, et le reste au fil du scroll). Peut-être un point à remonter aux devs, donc, afin qu'elles et ils optimisent ça pour éviter en revanche un gros taux de rebond chez les impatients.

Because I care about the planet, I just bought a Fairphone 5 to replace a dying 6-year smartphone that I will try to repair with specialists. Why do I share?

Because my new phone is slower than the 6-yo one, with a smaller battery capacity. So you'd better optimize your websites, because I'm not the only customer with this mindset. A sustainable web means more progress, faster, on the web performance front. Let's get to it.

"We used React to build an composable experience on our homepage, featuring a configurable module to display all the key elements that make our brand… that we don't really use because the marketing team is actually using the A/B test solution to contribute. But we don't care, as analytics confirmed the homepage is not really visited." Based on a true story. Several, actually. Over years of practice.

Do you really need a whole SPA framework for the body of a product details page consisting of a photo, a bit of text, a table with details and an add to cart form (that you could Ajaxify easily with progressive enhancement and only a few line of carefully crafted JS)?

La sortie de , je ne sais pas si c'est la fenêtre d'Overton de la gauche, mais c'est très certainement la fenêtre d'Overton de la webperf.

Vous n'avez aucune idée d'à quel point le web pourrait être plus rapide qu'aujourd'hui. Nos pages sont obèses, alors que le formats des fichiers qui les composent n'ont jamais été aussi optimisés et compressés.

Nous expérimentons un web de seconde zone parce qu'il est pensé par des personnes qui utilisent des MacBook Pro et des iPhone surpuissants, et injectent des fonctionnalités pour personnaliser votre expérience sans que, la plupart du temps, personne ne soit en mesure de dire si ça marche.

On rajoute des vidéos parce qu'elles existent plutôt que parce qu'elles ont du sens. Des graphismes en 4K pour que ça rende bien quand on imprime les visuels pour que le DG les signe sur papier-plume.

Les développeurs réinventent le navigateur plutôt que d'apprendre à s'en servir, en bardant les sites de JavaScript écrit par Facebook pour ses besoins propres, comme si tout le monde était Facebook !

Les projets prennent du retard, ne fonctionnent pas bien, finissent par devoir être jetés et refaits et c'est encore les mêmes erreurs qui sont commises.

Les sites du début des années 2010 sont plus réactifs et ont moins d'erreurs que ceux produits 15 ans plus tard. C'est juste dingue.

Javascriptification of the Front-End has other consequences than the enshitification of many user experiences that shouldn't be so complex.

For example, when a company transforms its MPA website into an SPA, it shifts computing power, particularly with regard to web page composition, from the server to the client. From the point of view of the EU's carbon footprint directive (), all the tons of CO2 emissions related to this disappear completely from the company's report.

@Paxxi @wingo I can point you to one, but you have to be very compact to get in.

You know what the coolest feature about the Web is?

(It's none of the things that have been added to it in the last 30 years.)

The coolest feature of the World Wide Web is that a fucking HTML page from like 1993 still renders perfectly fine today.

"The Performance Inequality Gap, 2024", Alex Russel (@slightlyoff)
https://infrequently.org/2024/01/performance-inequality-gap-2024/

"We got to a place where performance has been a constant problem in large part because a tribe of programmers convinced themselves that it wasn't and wouldn't be. The circa '13 narrative that:

  • CPUs would keep getting faster
  • Networks would get better, or at least not get worse.
  • Organisations had all learned the lessons of Google and FaceBook's adventures in Ajax.

was all bullshit"

Gonna save you the time of reading all those “top errors of 2023” posts churned out by the marketing teams at your favorite corporate accessibility consultancy (and the odd overlay vendor) — they are the same issues AS THE LAST DECADE OR TWO.

boostmarks,
@boostmarks@hachyderm.io avatar

@aardrian probably the same for all Web Quality issues: security, accessibility, internationalization, etc. Poor quality is a lack of sponsoring and governance, not knowledge.

boostmarks,
@boostmarks@hachyderm.io avatar

@aardrian Never heard of: "We let the money fall on the ground and the pigeons stole it. Shit, a lack of rigor no doubt". Because a lack of rigor is often a lack of process, which is the result of bad governance and wrong prioritization. If your process implies that a single person may lack rigor and do something that damage your product or service, it's probably that the company just don't care enough.

Je n'avais pas blogué depuis longtemps. C'est sûrement incompréhensible pour les lecteurs·ices, mais ça faisait du bien de sortir tout ça de ma tête.

Et ça parle d'IAs sans dire que c'est trop bien et sans promettre le guide ultime pour un prompt secret mais tellement puissant à la fin. J'ai même pas réussi à placer "dipsrumtif". Je me fait vieux.

Use Firefox.
No excuses.

boostmarks,
@boostmarks@hachyderm.io avatar

As a web performance professional, I deal with Core Web Vitals every day. That's not to say that Chrome is my only browser; I use Firefox for all my personal browsing, on computer and mobile. Using both browsers allows me to say that Firefox is lightning fast and doesn't need crucial features to compete with Chrome. It needs better distribution and a lot of communication, because it's up against a company that's sinking billions of dollars into owning the web, and is gradually succeeding.

Firefox 120 is released today with a lot of improvement but I'm really rooting for Firefox 121, on December 19th, and LCP support.

A big leap for web performance folks!

Just received a cookbook with recipes of people from all around the Csquad. I think I've taken 5 pounds just reading at some of them.

Do you have a recipe to share in a future edition? Join us! https://jobs.lever.co/contentsquare?lever-via=Jk4USoE9Eg

@keithjgrant I had to find something so that the children could manage the amount of chilli I've put in. With couscous, everyone was able to have a plate to their liking ❤️
