 * Hi [@florianbrinkmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/florianbrinkmann/)
 * Thanks for the follow-up. Another option I’ve seen is [https://blurha.sh/](https://blurha.sh/)–
   this is used by another WP lazy loading plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/lazysizes/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/lazysizes/)
   Unfortunately the plugin does not integrate with the site I’m working on as well
   as yours does.

 * [@florianbrinkmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/florianbrinkmann/) Just
   a brief follow-up. I discovered that native lazy loading disrupts the UX a lot
   more than letting lazy sizes handle it. Seems like native is overly aggressive
   with the threshold.

 * Hi [@florianbrinkmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/florianbrinkmann/)
 * Thank you for replying.
 * I hear you re: loading more data for each image. Considering that we are trying
   to improve page loading speed with lazy loading that does seem counter-intuitive.
 * But I think there are also other considerations to take into account. One being
   the user experience. I do think that for users who scroll rapidly enough on slow
   enough connections to come across blank spaces in a layout and for those to be
   populated with lazy loaded images while they wait and wonder about what’s going
   on there is a disruptive and potentially frustrating experience.
 * Now I know that we can change the threshold to try and prevent that from happening,
   but that can also quickly become counterproductive and just lead to less lazy
   loading across the board.
 * And I know you also have available the spinner which can show that at least something
   is being loaded. But I quote from smashingmagazine:
 * >  Looped Animation
   > Since the majority of looped animation is indeterminate and serve a variety
   > of types of delays, including long ones, this type of progress indicator tends
   > to have negative connotations. For example, a default loading icon in Apple
   > iOS (spinner of gray lines radiating from a central point area) serves a variety
   > of operating system functions, indicating the status of everything from device
   > boot to problems connecting to network or loading data. Because of that, users
   > don’t like to see only a loading spinner with no indication of progress or 
   > time.
 * And I personally would agree that users often have negative associations with
   loading spinners, I certainly do.
 * I would also think that another benefit of automatically generating placeholders
   that match the size or aspect ratio of the image would eliminate any chance of
   layout shifts happening. And with Google’s new focus on “page experience” over
   just “page speed” and cumulative layout shift being a core factor measured in
   that, there is a significant benefit to this because Google will be making that
   a search ranking factor in 2021.
 * Again I know image width and height can be specified in themes and thereby prevent
   layout shifts in masonry grids and such, but not all themes/editors/page builders
   consistently do this and not all users have the ability to correct for that themselves.
 * So it is to that end that I find LQIP interesting in lazy loading. BUT…I completely
   agree, loading of any additional data needs to be very carefully considered and
   also always be optional.
 * Perhaps something like SQIP is interesting – see partway into [this article](https://jmperezperez.com/svg-placeholders/)–
   because it seems to lead to placeholders that are generally bytes in size rather
   than KB’s. Although offhand I’m not sure whether regular LQIP can’t also achieve
   the same sort of sizes.
 * Either which way, thank you for considering the feature request, even if you 
   don’t decide to go with it.
 * Kind regards,
    Jonas

 * Hi [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)
 * Switching to default theme won’t tell us anything. The theme was custom built
   for this site and the page we are looking utilizes a page template that was custom
   built for it. If I disable/change the theme there’ll be nothing on the page. 
   I did a live preview of the Twenty Nineteen theme and when I look at that page
   there’s no gallery on it at all.

 * Hi [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)
 * The three small round thumbnails at the bottom of the pages?
 * OK, I have excluded those by both their class and image URLs, but the issue still
   remains. See: [https://www.dev.africa-experience.com/about-us/meet-the-guides/](https://www.dev.africa-experience.com/about-us/meet-the-guides/)
 * To be entirely sure I have also disabled the entire section that those images
   are in (it’s a theme element). But even then the issues still remain. See: [https://www.dev.africa-experience.com/about-us/meet-the-team/](https://www.dev.africa-experience.com/about-us/meet-the-team/)

 * Thanks [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)
 * OK, I have changed the embed method to sync (to head), saved and purged the cache
   but the problem remains.
 * So I guess that leaves me with either excluding every single one of the images,
   which as stated I prefer not to do, or trying to find a different lazy load plugin.

   the HTML minifier that [@optimizingmatters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/)

 * Hi [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)
 * Thank you for the follow-up. Last I used W3TC’s HTML minifier on a site (some
   time ago) it was giving me some issues, which is why I preferred using AO’s. 
   But I will give it another go now. I see that you now also offer two different
   HTML minifiers in your settings – Minify or HTML Tidy, so that may help.
 * Still, will be appreciated when your team addresses this issue down the line 
   as it does give users like myself more flexibility and I think also makes sense
   in terms of not loading something that the user is specifying they don’t want
   to use.
 * [@optimizingmatters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) –
   out of interest, which HTML minifier are you using in AO?
