Google Core Vitals now represent the most important metrics to focus on when it comes to technical SEO. Google Core Vitals are a set of standardized metrics that Google uses to evaluate the user experience offered by a web page and assign it a technical SEO grade. Several tools exist to measure and report technical SEO performance, but the most reliable is Google Lighthouse.

You will be pleased to know that isn’t actually the case and it’s a suite of metrics instead known collectively as core web vitals https://web.dev/vitals/

Let's go back to 2020, this was when Google made a big change regarding their performance rating -- they introduced the Core Web Vitals. I want to discuss this timeframe because it was the last point where there is clear comparable data between the performance metric set (5 metrics) and the Core Web Vitals (3 metrics). The Core Web Vitals is a subset of the performance metric set.

Beyond elevating the user experience, another clear benefit of speeding up the rendering of a website is search engine optimization (SEO). Speed is so important to ranking well on search engines that it’s included in Google’s published description of what their indexers use to rank websites for performance, called Core Web Vitals.

This is something we won't ever be able to measure, as it depends on how people perceive the overall experience on their device, but it boils down to perceived performance. So by all means, optimize your mobile apps and web frontends, test on old devices and slow networks (even if only emulated), and monitor their real-user performance (e.g. through Web Vitals). As part of performance testing, have a look on electricity use, as it will both be directly associated with emissions to produce that electricity, and be perceptible by the user (battery drain). And don't forget to account for the app downloads as part of the overall perceived performance: light mobile apps that don't need to be updated every other day, frontend JS and CSS that can be cached and won't update several times a day either (defeating the cache).

The Open Graph protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph. - Open Graph Protocol

OpenGraph docs

og:*: specified by the Open Graph Protocol for social media links rendering that determine their title, description, and images when you share them on social media or chat software such as Twitter(X), Discord, etc.

OpenGraph probably.

Since Netlify introduced Edge Functions we've had an ideal way to add a tiny bit of logic into our link shortener which will return a page template of our own to anything looking to unfurl the URL to display its opengraph image.

Recoil Gunworks doesn't have an Open Graph image tag defined in their product pages, so Reddit chooses something at random to use for a preview thumbnail. Neither OP nor the mods can do anything about it.
