Hey Jan, I'm glad Uglify works well for you. To answer your questions
1. Removing overridden core Tiddlers could reduce the code size somewhat, but I'm not sure how often that use case would come up. Even in my beastly TiddlyWiki projects, my overridden tiddlers don't make up very much space, particularly since I (and most people I'd think) only override smallish tiddlers. If it's something larger, a monkey-patch injection is used more often. Meanwhile, removing those overridden shadows could lead to a whole slew of nasty bugs if someone A) Removed the override down the line, or B) Tried to export their project into any form other than exactly what it is. 2. Temporarily removing deactivated plugins seems out of scope for a content compression plugin (But just by a little. It compresses plugins. Removing them is a different job), and it's probably best done by the user. If they are serving versions of a tiddler where they want certain plugins excluded, they'd could use the publishFilter. A slightly elaborate tiddly-filter could exclude all deactivated plugins. Hope this helps! -Flibbles On Friday, June 18, 2021 at 6:45:03 PM UTC-4 Jan wrote: > Hi Flibbles, > great idea!
