limit javascript to 640K of memory. so easy to implement and would fix most sites. Some other things like custom fonts could be removed from mobile browsers. The rest should be OK - 2 or 3 more seconds to load a page are not important really. After all, reading an article usually takes entire minutes, so shaving off the initial 2 seconds of reading is immaterial.

But finding the right article to read may require browsing through many pages, and after dozens those seconds can add up.

Also the solution cannot be to restrict all JS and web pages. It needs to be an open and opt-in framework.


i d be fine with some restriction to JS. Heavy JS pages are bad for the environment and disrespectful of the time of users.
