Huh, dickhead confirmed

Modern web bloat means some pages load 21MB of data - entry-level phones can't run some simple web pages, and some sites are harder to render than PUBG in c/[email protected]

Haven't done this type of optimizing in a long time, I had a quick look at the network graph for your front page (F12 dev tools in desktop browser), my understanding is it looks like you are getting blocked from loading additional resources (fonts + background) until your style sheets are fully read --pink line is document loaded i believe.

It may be worthwhile to experiment with adding some preload links to the html template? or output? like below and assessing if it makes things faster for you.

While having a quick look through old news:

From June 2021 (v0.16) (https://gleam.run/news/v0.16-gleam-compiles-to-javascript/#how-does-it-work)

Much like the Erlang compiler backend this new JavaScript backend outputs human readable and pretty printed source code. It is now included with the compiler and does not require any extra components to be installed to use it.
Rather than attempting to replicate a subset of Erlang’s actor model Gleam uses the standard promise based concurrency model when targeting JavaScript. While this may be disappointing for some, it means that there is no additional runtime code added. This keeps bundle size small and makes it so code written in Gleam can be called like normal from languages such as JavaScript and TypeScript.

As a design/drafter -- I design to 'look right' which is probably overkill. Hopefully that headroom helps with the 300lb ape factor.
