This plugin’s purpose is to optimize the performance of embeds in WordPress, such as YouTube videos, TikToks, and so on. Initially this is achieved by lazy-loading them only when they come into view. This improves performance because embeds are generally very resource-intensive and so lazy-loading them ensures that they don’t compete with resources when the page is loading. Other optimizations are planned for the future.
