No browser I know of falls back to a PNG when given an SVG with a PNG
fallback. The Tor version of my site uses no SVGs.
Exclude the SVG favicon in the Tor version of the site, since the Tor
Browser disables SVG on the safest setting.
- SearchMySite.net uses the "keywords" meta property to categorize
sites, so include keywords on the homepage
- Exclude the published date if it doesn't exist.
- apple-touch-icon not needed, will be fetched from doc root
- re-order <head> elements to optimize for compression algorithm size
savings. shaved off like 15 bytes. this was a good use of my time.
- Remove reference to unused syntax.css
- Stop Apple's magic phone-number-linkification. If I need to link a
telephone number I'll use a tel: URI, thank you very much.
The favicon is 175 bytes, smaller than the size of the HTTP headers to
fetch it. It can be inlined.
Now, pages that don't have any other images need just a single request.
The main stylesheet for the sit is just 721 bytes uncompressed. I can
inline it safely to shave off a request, since the headers alone are
probably comparable to the size of the CSS.
- The default time is browser-default colors, not "light". The only
"theme" for my site is the dark theme.
- The "color-scheme" doesn't have wide support
- The "color-scheme" property doesn't really do anything much if you use
browser-defaults or a dark theme with @prefers-color-scheme
- Footer should contain date last built so people don't start scratching
their heads wondering why webmentions aren't showing up
- Add rel="nofollow ugc" to webmention links.
Statically grab and include webmentions during Hugo builds, no JS
involved. Hugo supports making web requests and parsing the resulting
JSON, so there was no need to use an external program either.
Inspired by the h-entry implementation on Charlie Owen's personal
website: https://whalecoiner.com
The u-photo re-uses the 32px favicon that the browser has already
cached, so it shouldn't bloat up the page anymore.
These changes required a bit of additional CSS. I snuck in come color
changes too.
