        Lol uncompressed images could easily exceed 25 MB for a single image. I’ve seen some egregious cases of js sizes but I’ve never seen 25 MB

            That was a fucking webpage…?. I am honestly wondering how a browser could even handle that much code…

            I’m gonna say I’ve seen 5 MB uncompressed before but not much more than that if at all. Imo 1 MB is borderline unacceptable for the typical web page.

              It was an internal system for keep track of several projects. That still used 600MB more javascript than it actually needed for what it ended up doing anyway; purely static pages could’ve done everything needed, except maybe the animated graphics, but the create/edit forms were a fucking pain to even test, because not a single fucking element had an id and the date picker was literally impossible to target with Selenium
