• How We Went from 46 to 99 Performance Score to Improve Our Website Speed

  GMetrics, a tool that shows website loading behavior, helped us identify resources from external domains that caused the longest connection times. In purple, you see the time it took for a Domain Name Server to receive the request for a domain name's IP address, and in light green, you see server connection time. They took too long, so we accelerated them by reducing server connection time. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

• Companies must stop using Google Analytics

  Yes, you should absolutely not be using Google Analytics. They don't need more data, your users don't want to see cookie banners and most of you really don't need 99% of the data that you can filter through... I can't recommend Fathom (https://usefathom.com) enough. They have a huge focus on privacy-first tracking.
