Your Sentry JS script is brutalizing your first contentful paint times, which directly impacts bounce rate. Death to blocking external resources. If you inline, it will reduce what is likely your median FCP by nearly a full second and probably get you passing Core Web Vitals.

Before (FCP 2.1s): https://www.webpagetest.org/video/view.php?tests=220208_AiDc...

After (FCP 1.3s): https://www.webpagetest.org/video/view.php?tests=220208_AiDc...

(Also, you're loading a Google Fonts CSS file and then not using Open Sans. Also also, your fonts.gstatic.com preconnect wouldn't work even if you did use the font – you'll need `crossorigin`. See: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-fonts-3/#font-fetching-requirement...)

That's both good shouts. Pretty funny someone spotted this in two days. Introduced it recently and it's scheduled for removal today.

Thanks!
