An alternative approach to building websites
Imagine a world where we had to pay to use the internet based on how much data websites sent to our devices.
Popular website builders that currently account for 40% of internet traffic would soon become less popular.
Most websites download multiple megabytes of data, most of it unused, costing their visitors shorter battery lives and inflated data plans, whilst inflicting untold damage on the planet.
As we await the next ecological catastrophe, there has to be a better way to deliver websites.

The Web Almanac determined that the median page weight measured in 2024 was about 2.5 MB on both desktop and mobile (120% increase compared to 2012).
Most of this weight is images, but javascript is not far behind and indeed, 2024 saw the first year that the total number of requests for javascript exceeded requests for images.
