I care, yes. Subconsciously for sure, but also consciously. I really do appreciate fast web sites. And from your post, so do you! Most unpleasantly slow sites

I care, yes. Subconsciously for sure, but also consciously. I really do appreciate fast web sites. And from your post, so do you!
Most unpleasantly slow sites I encounter aren’t slow because they’re 10 MiB or whatever. They’re slow because it takes multiple seconds before a connection is even established and/or the bytes roll in. It’s 2022. Unless hosting on solar power, that’s not acceptable.
I think the web vitals stuff is awesome anyway, if only in bringing attention to the topic. I have some (junior-y) colleagues who simply do not care at all. Hundreds of requests, images popping in late, fonts being requested dozens of times, layout shifts. They need to learn that this is important. Also, the clients. They need to learn this is important, too.
