I sort of managed to better the previous load time with a big sacrifice though, with these:
- Had to reduce the quality for all images to be under 50KB.
- Had to remove background animation (makes the page dull but..).
For the effect and visual experience, I kept the text box animation as is.
However, I tried it and I must mention that, removing text box animations, made the LCP even better. But it can make the whole experience plain and uninteresting. But I can see many big players are doing this from early days.
I respect your feedback and I Understand what you mean by saying that load time, doesn’t fall under your purview. But you need to reconsider this aspect for a longer run. Providing features that will help users identify an estimated load time before publishing the story, will be helpful to the users. Especially someone who has slogged hard to create 100s of web stories (in the rightful way under guidelines) and suddenly the traffic goes down to zero due to the LCP factor.
I loved the way your plugin works but… Not raising a query because many people have already done and I know the response. But I’ll keep checking if there’s something helpful in the future. Thankyou.
