Hey friends, let's chat about dealing with unused and render-blocking JavaScript! ๐Ÿงฉ

I see this topic popping up frequently in audits and I've been asked how to deal with it in my Tech SEO Help Hours, so here's a quick intro thread on what you can do ๐Ÿงต (1/10)
2/10. What's the issue with unused JS? Well:

๐Ÿ˜ด the browser needs time and resources to process the script, with no benefit for the visitor.
๐Ÿ“ฒ mobile users may have to use extra data when accessing the page
๐Ÿ‘ฏโ€โ™€๏ธ it's commonplace, as many files or scripts might be bundled together
3/10. It's basically really detrimental to your performance, Core Web Vital scores, and therefore the general UX of your site, so better tackle it I say!

Let's take a look at a couple of things you can do to improve this issue, or better communicate some causes.

Please, take a moment to look at the %'s as G see's their value/influence.

Notice that CLS (jump) is only 5%.
Where as LCP is 25%.

LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) includes Background Images.

That means if your web design includes a GB Img (not an image for content!), then it impacts the LCP, and thus your CWV score.

Worse - the potential negative of that is far greater than Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)
People wonder why I give G a hard time, and why I doubt their judgement in regards to metrics and figures.
