Here is how I propose browsers address web bloat:
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Stop adding features](https://seirdy.one/notes/2022/06/18/browser-development-moratorium/) unrelated to accessibility, security, privacy, and internationalization.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Adopt a default [document policy](https://github.com/wicg/document-policy/blob/main/document-policy-explainer.md) that [restricts oversized assets and download size](https://github.com/WICG/document-policy/issues/44).
|
||||
|
||||
3. Make JIT-compilation a per-site opt-in permission. That should rein in over-reliance on JS.
|
||||
|
||||
This should mostly contain the bloat problem without significantly inconveniencing most users, which is why it will never happen.
