User story:
As the Growth team, I want to better understand how page load times impact user engagement, because then I can make more informed decisions.
Background:
We had a natural experiment that started on 6/18/2024 where an upstream change increase Homepage loadtimes:
T368405: Special:Homepage is rendered much slower (<1 sec to 2+ sec).
Questions:
Was there an observable change in user interactions with the Homepage because of this difference in load times?
Acceptance Criteria:
- Timeboxed investigation to see if there was a change in homepage engagement (homepage module interactions / CTR, Structured Task completion, etc.) before and after the change. Is there a difference on mobile vs. web?
