Core Web Vitals-2025: как управлять скоростью и стабильностью сайта

Салют, Хабр! Меня зовут Паша, я вхожу в группу обеспечения производительности интерфейсов; неформально это команда «Скорость» SberDevices. Мы с коллегами отвечаем за то, чтобы сайты sberdevices.ru , giga.chat , developers.sber.ru и другие быстро работали и красиво выглядели. Если пользователю неудобно использовать сайт, он быстро с него уйдёт (и не станет ничего читать и покупать). Как только потребовалась оценка качества веб-страниц, появилось и множество подходов к ним. Но в итоге индустриальным стандартом стали методы, предложенные Google и реализованные на уровне браузерных API. Чтобы понять, как сайты стоит оптимизировать и что влияет на их быстродействие, Google оперирует тремя метриками — Core Web Vitals. Две из них действуют с мая 2020 года, а третьей не исполнилось и года. Сегодня расскажу, как разработчик может оценить их и улучшить без консультации команды скорости (если она есть). А ещё благодаря оптимизации метрик Core Web Vitals сайт ранжируется в поисковиках выше. Поехали!

There's a really simple thing you can do to encourage more organisations to set up accounts on Mastodon.

The next time you post a link to Mastodon, just put this UTM code at the end of the URL:

?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social

So for example:

https://that90ssite.neocities.org/

Becomes:

https://that90ssite.neocities.org/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social

Why?

Well, because the website owners are almost certainly using an analytics platform to track where their traffic comes from.

And if the organisation is big enough to have a social media manager, they're almost certainly looking at how much traffic social media posts are generating.

And this stuff gets reported up the organisational hierarchy.

If you add ?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social to the end of your URLs, suddenly Mastodon begins appearing in those reports.

Now, let's suppose on a given day they post their Facebook and X/Twitter links and a couple of hundred people click on it, because it's obvious spam.

Meanwhile, you post a link on Mastodon with the UTM code, and it's shared, snd a couple of thousand people click on it.

Perhaps they should look into investing more resources into Mastodon?

Incident SEV scales are a waste of time

Ask an engineering leader about their incident response protocol and they’ll tell you about their severity scale. “The first thing we do is we assign a severity to the incident,” …

Oh Pantheon, you nimbly defend
That hosting of hate groups you'll not rescind
Though developers have quit
Your stance still must fit
A place on the web with no end
