Browser & Web Performance · Junior · Question 28 of 75
Why shouldn't you add loading="lazy" to the hero image at the top of the page?
- 1Lazy loading doesn't work on large images
- 2It would make the image blurry
- ✓Correct answer: It is likely the LCP element, and lazy loading delays its download
Explanation
The browser waits for layout to know the image is in view before fetching it, which pushes LCP later.
