The new Lab Scan email is 🔥 We automatically scan your busiest pages, rollup your scores and common issues from Mobile and Desktop, and show details from your slowest pages. Why are you still manually scanning your website?

Ever tapped a button and nothing happened? That’s a Long Animation Frame (LoAF) messing with your smooth experience. LoAFs are the hidden lag spikes of the web! 🔥 Learn why they suck and how to fix them: 🔗 requestmetrics.com/web-performanc… #webperf #perfmatters

Picking the wrong image format kills performance! JPG for photos, PNG for graphics, WebP/AVIF for modern compression. Choosing wisely cuts file sizes in half! Full breakdown: requestmetrics.com/web-performanc… #WebPerf #CoreWebVitals

Vector images (SVG) scale infinitely, stay crisp at any size, and have tiny file sizes—perfect for icons, logos, and graphics. Ditch PNGs when you can! Just don’t export a PNG as SVG—that’s cheating. 😉 Full breakdown here: 👉 requestmetrics.com/web-performanc…

@lipsumar Can you open a private chat on requestmetrics.com and I’ll help debug it?

@requestmetrics We have a « growth » subscription and I can see some waterfalls without any resources (there is one specific session I know they were showing but not anymore)

@requestmetrics i used to be able to see resources in the load waterfall of sessions, they don’t seem to show anymore. Is that on purpose or a bug ?

@lipsumar Awesome! Yes, click the "this session" link in the upper right. Here's a video.

@requestmetrics I discovered only yesterday how well RM tracks errors and sessions, this is amazing 🤩 I didn’t find a way to jump from an error to sessions containing this error, is that possible?
