down without pixelation.

By activating Lottie, all the style of Gutenberg editor broke…

I was using this plug-in for a year until I started looking into why I was getting
low website speed scores. This plug-in is horribly bloated, wow! I had C and D scores
on GTMetrix due to browser render-blocking due to heavy file sizes and JS. I replaced
it with the Lottie Player from bPlugins and immediately got A. Replacing the plug-
in brought the file size on an HTML page I used for comparison down from 2.3 MB 
to 190 KB. Make your own tests and decide for yourself or know that I already did
it for you, and look elsewhere for a better plug-in.

The plugin has not been updated for many months. I see the following error in the
block editor (developer console), even if I don’t use the Lottie block: Uncaught(
in promise) NotSupportedError: Failed to execute ‘define’ on ‘CustomElementRegistry’:
the name “lottie-player” has already been used with this registry

It injects whole tailwind css with 29.628 css rules in the admin!For those who understand
this, it is nothing more to say.

 [Jonathan Jernigan](https://profiles.wordpress.org/apexws/) Gortheren 9, 2024

Added the block to my site and after I saved the page, it resulting in a critical
error on the page. I removed the plugin and deleted the block from the page manually
and it still would not load the page. Had to go find the revisions of the home page
manually inside the database, delete those, and then my home page was accessible
again. Sad because this has all the features I need, but doesn’t work reliably. 
This is not the first time I’ve run into critical errors with this plugin
