What are you doing this week? Feel free to share! Keep in mind it’s OK to do nothing at all, too.
My Hugo blog was downloading 3.6 MB of JavaScript and 40 KB of external CSS on every page load. For a static blog with mostly text and a few diagrams, that was absurd. Here is how I fixed it. HTML: 86 KB JavaScript: 3.6 MB (Mermaid + KaTeX) CSS: 40 KB (KaTeX stylesheets) Problem: render-blocking scripts loaded on every page for math and diagrams Adding minifyOutput = true to hugo.toml shrunk HTML
Many of us know the classics, such as: zombo.com (RIP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombo.com) https://www.penisland.net/ (its SFW, I promise!) crouton.net (this seems to be down? :( Heres how it looks like though https://protoweb.org/2024/01/28/crouton-net/ ) But what else is there? What are some of the silly fun sites you know about? It doesn't need to make sense. Just.. Fun. Whimsy.
