Web Performance is not only about understanding what makes a site fast. Performance is a feature and needs to be prioritized as such. Performance is a topic that has interested me for a long time. Moving over to web, the performance problems are different. This is not a post explaining why web performance is important.

Earlier this year, when Google announced that Interaction to Next Paint (INP) will replace First Input Delay (FID) as the responsiveness metric in Core Web Vitals in *gulp* March of 2024, we had a lot to say about it. Our own data reflects a similar story. The elephant in the room: Why does mobile INP perform so poorly?

Google has announced plans for a new badging system that would let users know whether a website typically loads slowly. If you’re using best practices and keeping web performance in mind, you shouldn’t need to worry about being badged. Most stemmed from Google exercising too much power with this move.
