Performance Issue - Kick Embed about chat-gui HOT 4 CLOSED

Probably not overly related to the above issue but a quick firefox profile of dgg chat and my local dgg chat dev instance i'm seeing a ton of repaints being done (probably not easily avoidable due to the nature of the application) but specifically the emote animations using background-position-x and background-position-y I believe these could be causing repaints of siblings so potentially there could be optimisations that can be made in the emotes css maybe a will-change property or similar.

Further looking in chrome shows similar results and highlights repaint regions, using the above properties and move animations such as Tier 5 names and Flairs, this is during a relatively quiet time around 10am UTC.

strangely enough emotes like NOOOO and PepeHands don't seem to cause a repaint

but an emote like REE also causes a sibling repaint

Something potentially that could be investigated is unifying a consistent emote animation approach where possible to try to avoid constant painting, I think this might have a positive effect on performance.

I noticed today that the site was fine for 1.5 hours, but immediately began lagging when he started streaming on Kick

from chat-gui.

Now that tiny is streaming on Youtube/Rumble again, I can say it only occurs when he's streaming on Kick. I'm not sure what changes between the embeds, but I have yet to see it happen during any other embed.

Since tiny has talked about stopping embeds, this issue is no longer relevant.
