Running a standard speed test on https://xenforo.com/community/ reveals some room for improvement. Some things may not be possible of course, while others can be fixed by the individual admins tweaking and 3rd party addons. However many forum owners may not know where/how, so having things as optimized as possible from "stock" is always beneficial, so hope to see 2.3 or future updates having some focus on this.
Examples:
Lazy loading images that are not in the main rendering by default?
Defer/asyc to all non-essential xore XF js by default? (isn't XF doing this already, not sure why 7 js files are thus shows as blocking page rendering).
Improvements to delivery of core XF javascript that are essential for page rendering/function (can anything be trimmed/removed etc)? Almost a second for "blocking" main thread waiting for js loading.
The new cookie notice is really hurting LCP?
Font display:swap by default for making sure visitors see text while the font is loading?
Other things?
