This article says the placeholder image is “lazy-loaded by default in most cases”. But actually, the image is set as CSS background-image which isn’t handled by most lazy-loading solutions.

Maybe the structure can be refactored for better performance?

Hi @asafm7,

I’ll have a look at the ‘normal’ integration. A YouTube performance thread about using your own .webp images can be followed here. I’m close to an article for best practices.

Hope this helps, regards Aert

Hi @asafm7,

As the suggested features/improvements (WebP placeholders & lazy loading background-image) have now been included in our testing routines: I will mark this thread as resolved for the time being.

Let us know if you have any further questions!

Kind regards, Jarno
