+# Optimize/proxy oversized third-party event images
+
+Status: needs-triage
+
+## Context
+
+PageSpeed Insights (via Google Search Console, 2026-07-17) flagged "Çok büyük
+ağ yükleri" on both desktop (~6.9 MB total) and mobile (~10.1 MB total) for
+`https://eventradar.dev/`. The large payload is almost entirely event
+thumbnail images pulled directly from source platforms and rendered
+unmodified in `EventCard` (`frontend/src/components/EventCard.jsx`):
+
+- `cdn.prod.website-files.com` — two PNGs at 2.0 MB and 1.35 MB
+- `api.ibb.gov.tr` — up to four PNGs, largest at 0.9-2.3 MB
+- `learn.pupilica.com` — several images 300-480 KB each
+- `framerusercontent.com`, S3 buckets — additional 100 KB-1 MB images
+
+These are `event.image_url` values scraped as-is from each source
+(`app/scrapers/*.py`) and stored in the `events.image_url` column
+(`app/models/event.py`). The frontend already displays them at a fixed
+200px-tall card thumbnail (`.event-image` in `frontend/src/index.css`) with
+`loading="lazy"`, but the full multi-megabyte original is still downloaded —
+lazy-loading only delays the request, it doesn't shrink it.
+
+## Why this is a separate issue
+
+Fixing this requires either:
+1. An image proxy/resizing service (e.g. an on-the-fly resize endpoint in the
+   FastAPI backend, or a CDN-level image transform) that re-encodes source
+   images to a card-appropriate size before serving them, or
+2. Downloading and caching a resized copy at scrape time in
+   `app/scrapers/*.py` / `app/services/scraper_service.py`.
+
+Both are a real backend/infra design decision (storage, cache invalidation,
+handling source images disappearing) — out of scope for the nginx/CSS/CLS
+fixes already shipped in `fix/google-search-console`.
+
+## Suggested approach (not decided)
+
+- Add a lightweight resize step in the scraper pipeline that downloads
+  `image_url`, re-encodes to e.g. 400x200 WebP, and stores it (S3/local
+  volume) behind the app's own domain — this also removes the current
+  dependency on third-party hosts staying up.
+- Alternatively, front `image_url` with a resize proxy
+  (`/api/img?url=...&w=400&h=200`) that streams a transformed image with
+  caching headers.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- [ ] Event card thumbnails on the homepage/listing pages are served at a
+      size proportionate to their 400x200 display box (not multi-MB
+      originals).
+- [ ] Total network payload for the homepage drops meaningfully in a fresh
+      PageSpeed Insights run (large network payload audit).
+- [ ] Broken/unreachable source images still fall back to
+      `/placeholder-image-colored.webp` (existing `onError` behavior in
+      `EventCard.jsx` must keep working).
