Made some fun changes to the 512KB Club to make it a little more interesting...https://512kb.club/

@kev Well, I removed my favicon, which had apparently added over 100 KB.I'm down to 43.9 KB uncompressed now! #greenTeam on #512clubhttps://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.ethanyoo.com/jTJgTZ3s/I'd appreciate any suggestions for creating a new favicon: https://todon.eu/@ethan/105293744886224406

@kev may I suggest a color coding change, for instance in favor or bronze/silver/gold? To me, red screams "avoid at all costs", not "slightly less great than the other great websites but still doing really well"

@kev Looks good. Would be nice to see more details on each website.

@ethan nice job. I've updated the site.For the Favicon, I always create it in Inkscape (no bigger than 512px), then copy it to GIMP and export it to JPG at a quality of around 70. I also uncheck to remove everything like exif, thumbnail etc when exporting. That usually makes them pretty small.

@ethan @kev I created a very simple one using Inkscape. Not sure how much weight it adds to my site though. https://samirparikh.com/blog/create-favicon.html

Favicon on your site is quite light, weighing 1.3KB.https://gtmetrix.com/reports/samirparikh.com/CPRcceQI/@samir

@lexane great point! I've replaced red with blue.

@lexane gold, silver, bronze are difficult to tell apart and don't offer much in the way of contrast when flipping from dark to light mode. So blue is a better choice for accessibility. Thanks again.

@epical that would be too much to manage.

@kev Agree, gathering details and update them from time to time should be automated :)

@kevThis is inspiring! (I especially like the best*mtfk*.website 😀) I'd probably design my personal site in HTML and send it in too!

@infinity I’ve thought about manually coding my blog a few times. But if I ever wanted to make a change (which I do all the time!) I’d have to change it on every single post - it would be a nightmare.For example, if I wanted to change analytics, or add a script to the header, I’d have to update hundreds of pages.

@kevThat would be overwhelming work indeed, but there are template objects like @jamie has mentioned, and I imagine there's at least one FOSS CMS out there that spits out html pages and will auto update all pages.But of course we can't all go the HTML route. Each person's just got to decide what'll work best for them.

@kev Absolutely love this idea. I finally got around to making a personal website (amanasifkhalid.github.io), and it just so happened to make the cutoff! Definitely have some work left to do to make it to the green team, though...

@kev I just redid some stuff on my site and got it down to 52.2kb from 204kb. Is there a way to get things updated?
