Lazy-load contents of "What's New" interface

Open philippotto opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The olvy content seems to always load the content eagerly. In case of big images or gifs, this is a bit unfortunate since the requests can also make actual bucket requests stall.

This would be great!

I wrote a duplicate of this today, not realizing that this exists. Some of the info I wrote in #7704 may be relevant to this. I included some measurements also.

Potential solutions:

  • defer olvy initialization and
    • fetch the "unread" count by proxying via back-end
    • OR use another olvy api route to fetch the count
  • switch from olvy to somewhere else
  • ask olvy to support this
  • use a service worker to "stall" the content requests somehow
