Payload size

[–] mr_satan@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It was mentioned before. Source map is a comment with an URL. It's not pulled automatically unless the client has devtools and supports that. It doesn't meaningfully increase the size of the site for normal users.

Eh, true. It does clean up the payload, but I agree it's marginal.
