Current homepage is 11Mb and that is not acceptable

Description

The homepage has a nice 11Mb!

image

11Mb. That translates to 3Mb on mobile.

That is not acceptable, for a variety of reasons:

  • that's not just promoting best practices on every metric
  • Google doesn't like heavy sites
  • We have worldwide customers and I don't know if we have a CDN. If we don't, that means the homepage is SLOW to load in some places.

Proposal

UX:

  • Propose a new background image, not made of 150+ individual avatars

Front end:

  • Implement new design
