Improve the web and the world: remove all garbage third party javascript from your site.

  Its more the CopyPasta of god knows how many JavaScript frameworks.

    It's really not. I ran the website for a large news org. Even without ads third party JS was loading twice as many bytes as our React and first party code. The YouTube embed, alone, was larger than our entire first party JS. What are you going to do as an engineer? Tell sales that expensive marketing solution they bought isn't going onto the site because it loads too much JS?

      There is that as well - you must have much better developers than most sites. And some times you have to let things fail and then explain why it di and then do it right

  I did just that and it's surprisingly heart warming to know my site could run on a calculator if need be. No JS, no tracking, no nonsense. 100% content.
