Okay, this is quite a banger feature for web perf engineers. In Chrome Canary, you can now turn on an experimental feature to throttle single requests or requests to a single domain!

This feature is golden to figure out if a delayed or heavy resource has a noticeable performance impact. 👏
Our friends from Debugbear share some details:

Ever wondered why otel is so painful on the frontend and how we could make things better?
Wonder no more! I had a lot of fun writing this article and venting a bit, but it wouldn’t be an article of mine if I didn’t share how the community is stepping up and how we can be a part of the change ❤️

Reflecting on an incredible experience speaking at @TheLeadDev's #LDX3 conference last week! Very grateful to have been accepted as a speaker and for the amazing support throughout.
I enjoyed discussing challenges growing teams in the era of layoffs, and hopeful that my talk can provide some inspiration by treating teaching as a core engineering skill, applying lessons from pedagogy.

I really want to be able to switch to Vivaldi, but it's just wiped all of my tabs twice in a row.
I just wanted to switch between 2 different profiles, which seems like is the whole point of the feature?
Any recommendations? I was converted to vertical tabs by Arc. I know there's Zen but last I heard they didn't support DRM so netflix and friends didn't work.
