Tiny Awards for Small Websites

Thanks for the feature. We made the website with https://build.mmm.page/. It is the most fun wysiwyg builder I have used. Highly recommend it, bugs included.

Tiny Awards for Small Websites is awarded the prestigious and highly coveted "Boatload of Unecessary Javascript Blocking Content Award" by me.

Yep. About 1.7 MB of JavaScript (yeah, less across the wire) to do literally nothing interactive, and have a janky, ridiculously-scaled document where everything is the same shade of blue, links are not distinguished in any way, and a decorative image even collides with the text in one place. The whole thing should have been under 20KB of pure HTML, SVG and CSS.

Found a tracker in it that the usual uBlock Origin lists aren’t blocking, too: https://api.june.so/sdk/{page,track}.

Really doesn’t endear mmm.page to me.

Not working properly on Firefox for Android. Text is cut off.

They are not eligible for their own reward anyway, I think. Maybe they forgot to mention it in their rules though.

This is awesome. Almost all content on the internet has been centralized by social networks, so it brings me joy to see an appetite for small, personal, non-commercial websites.

Genuinely curious, why does the page make 20+ requests for ~1.5Mb of non-content for a site that quite literally exists to showcase small websites? Oversight?

Currently rendering as an entirely blank page for me in Safari. Largely because it seems to be scaled to some ungodly size and all I'm seeing is the left margin - but horizontal scrolling is disabled. A+ superb. 10/10. No notes.
