       | bottom of the page, it loads tons of 4+ MB JSON files. The
       | unscaled author images and numerous tracking scripts also
       | contribute to the enormous payload. I don't know enough about
       | Next.js internals to say what went wrong here, but that seems
       | ridiculous for a simple blog.
