The new Web Almanac is out. 🎉

If you don't know the Web Almanac, it's pretty much a summary and analysis of the state of the web based on real data from the HTTP Archive.

As a yearly tradition, I'll go over it and highlight/comment on the things that stand out. Let's go! 🧵

My contribution to this years Web Performance Calendar is all about Third Parties and Single Points of Failure (SPOF). Based on @httparchive.org data I found that 67% of websites have at least 1 render blocking third party - and quite a few of them are SPOF risks!

Day 010 #100DaysOfPerf: In an apt compliment and follow up to the page weight post, working with media is one rife with challenges. Media loading, media formats, media codecs... But it's what makes the web so valuable.
✨ MEDIA ✨ chapter from the @httparchive.org is another worth checking 🧵⬇️

Though I shared a link from the @httparchive.org and the 2024 Web Almanac, sharing a chart from the the actual archive: over 5 yrs, the page weight has grown almost 30%, and there has never been an indication of slowing down. The almanac chapter covers much of the data proving so. 🧵⬇️

Day 007 #100DaysOfPerf: Since I touched on the @httparchive.org Web Almanac, decided to continue sharing more of their content. A note: The HTTP Archive really started as a way to see how the web was built, and its performance. So it will always have a hint of performance discussion. Today? FONTS 🧵⬇️
