    Some examples:
    1) Get rid of all unnecessary Javascript
    * rebuild all simple brochureware sites as static sites using only HTML/CSS.
    * increase the use of native apps to reduce the avoidable transmission of web apps. Generic, multi-account ones implementing open protocols, not branded ones tied to nonfree services.
    * get rid of all user tracking and ad serving

      2) make software and storage local-first as much as possible.
      https://martin.kleppmann.com/papers/local-first.pdf

      * again, more use of generic native apps
      * increase the use of browser cache and persistent storage, to avoid the same data being downloaded over and over again on the same sites.
      * make it easy to download media, rather than streaming it over and over again.

      3) localize servers. Where servers are needed, host them as close as possible to where their users are. Eg NZOSS hosts all its services at the CatalystCloud.nz datacentre in Aotearoa, because most of the people using them are located here. If all network services aimed at kiwis did that, it would significantly reduce the traffic on the cables connecting Aotearoa to the rest of the world's networks.

      @tomosaigon agreed, but every little bit counts, especially for users on dial-up, rural ADSL, or metered mobile data. As the old saying goes, if you take care of the cents, the dollars will take care of themselves. If everyone points to another resource waster as an excuse to keep wasting resources, nothing will change.

      @tomosaigon @strypey This essentially goes back to the "1) Get rid of all unnecessary JavaScript" point.

      And when it comes to "streaming", I think viewers need the option to download movies/shows they particularly like and will rewatch. Unfortunately capitalism often gets in the way of these efficiencies...

      Recommending alternative entertainment is one measure you can take, I do!
