True, knowing that an (empty) linktree profile is 1MB: https://linktr.ee/hello

Perfect!

In your case, for the `main` element. Note that I was referring to desktop browsers gestures (Chromium), but that might help with mobile ones as well.

I have 1 second to spare. Optimization is good, but shaving milliseconds at all costs always sounded a bit pointless to me, except for real-time audio communication.
