When put in this situation I usually go down this list: - find something that is 'technically impossible' about the element(s) in question - find something about the element(s) that will "increase load time", even if it's only by a second o

i thought it was all music at first until after a few clicks, so perhaps an icon next to each link to discern music from articles from interviews? for some of them (the reddit ones for example) they're already using a 3rd party player (yout
