While optimizing the WordPress website, Naiba found that comments somewhat slow down the website loading speed. Because WordPress defaults to referencing Gravatar avatars, and accessing Gravatar servers from within China is not stable enough, it can easily cause slow website loading.
With the Lazy Load for CommentsWordPress Pluginyou can achieve loading website comments after clicking a button or when scrolling to the comment area.
