I conducted a thorough performance analysis of my website today. While it previously functioned adequately, I was confident there was room for improvement. Leveraging a combination of server-side optimizations, WordPress plugins, and performance measurement tools like PageSpeed Insights, WebPageTest, and Lighthouse, I identified and addressed key bottlenecks. This resulted in a significant 50% improvement in overall performance for my visitors.

To leverage even further, I'd have to implement full CDN & go with a dedicated host. The question is, do I want to go that route?

MartinGuay,

Do I want to incur that additional cost, with no substantial influx of cash?

@majorlinux right now. I'm running on a shared hosting platform. Unlimited SSD storage, Unlimited Bandwidth, Inote limit set 300k, 2GB of RAM and pretty much everything else included... it's a really good price for $65 a year. I'm looking for better, and I know my cost will increase... so kind of looking for suggestions.

I want to share this publicly, as I feel there are other admins out there that might want to see it and possibly chime in here as well.

@FediTips which is the same person(s) who own/run @FediGarden has confirmed to the DM's they have sent.

I've provided some feedback for them, and would love to see other admins do the same possibly.

Geeeebuzzzzz I missed a whole lot of action today bud! Dang.

I read every reply made. (ALL).

Ultimately, do what you think is good for you & your instance. There's no point in worrying about what others think or do. I've got better cats to stroke.

The Fediverse will know doubt attracts a bunch of desirable and undesirable.

Threads; a city like any other instance even from the likes of Meta. You don't have to like it.

@cliffwade no shit. I read every damn reply I could find related to it. It was like going down a rabbit hole. Ultimately, I wrote what I felt was just, accurate reflection of minding your own business and enjoying what you enjoy and fuck off if your not happy with my choices. But of course in more polite terms.

Good morning and happy Monday to all of you here in the #Fediverse

It's a new week, so let's all comment below with what the week has in store for all of us and what we hope to accomplish.

For me, it's usual work stuff with meetings here and there and not much else work wise I don't think.

Tonight will be Fortnite with friends and I'll hopefully get some more time playing Horizon Forbidden West.

@cliffwade Good morning you beautiful ray of fucking sunshine! It's Monday morning and the sun roared its ass out of bed at 6 am, where we're you? I'll tell you where you are! In bed dozing away a baby cradled inside a tree stump while the animals are looking. Welcoming to #Monday

@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

A friend of mine is on the dating scene (straight dude)... I'm sad for him. The womens he's trying to meet all have this delusional idea that he's gonna pay them for their time and dinner date.... No. Just stop. Pay for your own shit you guys aren't together. Fuck this nonsense. I would never pay for my dates unless I offered and better not be expected.... Pay for your own damn thing girl and if you can't bye bye. Like wtf is wrong....

MartinGuay,
@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

@the5thColumnist it should always have been pay for your own shit. I just don't get this nonsense if the 19-45 year old demanding that you pay for their time as much as $100 an hour plus dinner? No fuck right off.

MartinGuay,
@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

@WhippoorwillSong he agrees that their delusional yes. It's more than "just paying for the dinner", most are expecting now that you also pay them for their time being spent with you and no they are not escorts their just regular walk of life women. This is a trend I'm also seeing as a gay men with women. The age range is 18 to 45. I have to say it's not just 1 or 2... It's 9 out of 10. And this trend is extremely huge on Tiktok. "If you don't pay me I don't talk to you."

MartinGuay,
@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

@WhippoorwillSong yeah that Tiktok trend is creeping up in real life. I'm seeing that a lot and more and more everyday.

"Whatever happened to meeting someone at a softball game, or at a friend's bbq?". I wouldn't be able to say, not something I've ever done, I met my husband online 14 years ago.

I make every effort in my power to reduce the impact my website has on load time and size. It's not easy... Not having the budget of larger website to leverage full-blown CDN is a big issue, but I've managed to do something really good with what I have.

Morning Peeps! The only crisis I see this morning is my coffee machine not being fast enough. That's as far as I'm willing to go for a crisis.

MartinGuay,
@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

hey @cliffwade not to bad here! I'm surviving Saint Patrick's Day as we did Karaoke and starting the ol'Irish songs early on in the morning with some pints. To the fact I went to bed near 2am. I am feeling nauseated, sleepy, and that damn coffee machine (it work wonderfully, I'm just in a speedy move to get COFFEE) isn't fast enough this morning. LOL

MartinGuay,
@MartinGuay@mstdn.ca avatar

@cliffwade 5:30am took some advil and tylenol to ensure that I would be responsive, then I napped for 1h30mins after. Which now I'm working away. (should be working from the office, but not today, work from home it is for this morning).
