Hello, we’ve installed the Elfsight gallery widget on our website but it is extremely slow. We already tried to remove the “defer” attribute and also the “async” attribute, but it does not make any difference.
Can you advise what we can do to make the gallery load (much) faster? Many thanks in advance!

To make it work smoothly, please optimize the pictures using any third-party tool and re-upload them to the widget, this should help. Here are links to some services that we can recommend:
In case you compress the images and the result still doesn’t meet your expectations, please check this article - How to make a widget load faster, there’s a chance that one of the ways described there can help you
