Continuing the discussion from [Accessibility software and discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/accessibility-software-and-discourse/13711/37):

When I advertised the great changes made to Discourse in accessibility over the past few days on Twitter last night, a friend came back with [this PageSpeed results page](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmeta.discourse.org%2Ft%2Faccessibility-software-and-discourse%2F13711). Some of these sound pretty serious, especially the first one.

Are you aware of these problems?

Thanks!  
Marco

Is it anything not already covered in these two existing topics?

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/improve-discourses-pagespeed-score/17180](https://meta.discourse.org/t/improve-discourses-pagespeed-score/17180)

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/google-page-speed-insight/18005](https://meta.discourse.org/t/google-page-speed-insight/18005)

No, I do not see anything new there. Remember, we are not a website. We are a JavaScript app you install on your device when you access the URL (and subsequently cached).

@codinghorror, nope, this topic can be closed as a duplicate of the [other](https://meta.discourse.org/t/improve-discourses-pagespeed-score/17180) one. Sorry about the noise!
