#### Editor’s note
 
Welcome to 2024!

I’m not one for New Year’s resolutions. If you are, why not make one of your professional commitments to advocate for investment in better web performance? As a community, we need a vocal, consistent push for improving the access and experience on the web. The more people we educate on the importance of web performance, the more new advocates we earn and the more likely we are to succeed.
 
Advocacy works, so let’s go.
