Wow! A simple 3D game in 425KB.

For me, google.com is 1.47MB. It makes you wonder what they put inside.

You got me wondering what was going on - 425Kb seemed pretty high. I imagined there would only be around 50K of non-compressed source code. Turns out the 200Kb+ culprit is the texture atlas I nabbed off the internet: https://github.com/mrspeaker/webgl2-voxels/blob/master/res/m... - I'm only using a handful of cells out of that, I should chop it!

This is not the world we wished for, but this is the world we deserve.

Nah, we don't deserve it. We just don't have a choice at this point until someone is capable of creating an alternative to JavaScript.

Didn't you mean "an alternative to Google?"

Don't blame the tool for the (lack of) craftsmanship.

[encryptluks2]

It has nothing to do with Google and everything to do with JavaScript.

The issue isn’t JS. Sites are bloated because cheap/lazy/dont care. Also because ads are bloating and payload size isnmt really thought about much.

[encryptluks2]

The issue is JavaScript unless you're talking about people that use BMP image format instead of JPG/SVG.

You are asking for an alternative for browsers and 30 years of evolution. Be careful what you wish for :)

Way too many abstractions.
