Container Timing is a new web performance metric to measure when an area of the screen gets painted ⏲️
@jdapena.bsky.social and @jason-williams.co.uk have been working on it for the last couple of years.
It's in Chromium, behind a flag. Hopefully coming to an origin-trial near you soon!
How do you measure rendering performance for entire DOM subtrees without slowing down the browser? ⏱️

Okay! alpaca.blue is a combined BlueSky+Mastodon client (reads+posts). Now with significant usability improvements, visual improvements, and acceptable performance.
Still working on:
- Image and video posting
- Thread viewing
- General reliability (though it's much improved)
We know this is not a very useful metric, but it's always nice to see progress there. Especially knowing where we come from, 1.3M in June 2024: bkardell.com/blog/1_3M-WP...
