Thanks Jan!
Hey @davewsmart
very cool tool: tamethebots.com/tools/cwv-hi…
What if... say... we had a bookmarklet for this? :)
hey @g33konaut breaking X silence to bother you with a quick question, soon chromium will auto try https for http urls (chromestatus.com/feature/605…) kinda like hsts for everything.
I know google's network level isn't really like chrome, but it that something googlebot will / does do?

Inspired by the GSC Perf. bookmarklet from @davewsmart I made a version for domain properties:
javascript:(function(){
window.open(`search.google.com/u/1/search…${encodeURIComponent(window.location.hostname)}&page=!${encodeURIComponent(window.location.href)}`)
})();

Sometimes I have imposter syndrome when writing. It started ~8 years ago when I pitched my first article. A person at a popular SEO blog told me:
"Our audience craves actionable, in-depth information, and your post is quite basic".
Don't be like that person. I almost gave up.
