Changelog
5.2.0 — March 21, 2023
- Disable unused preloading on Shopify sites in Chromium < 110. Preloads in Chromium < 110 were unused due to Shopify sending a Vary: Accept header that confused Chromium < 110.
- Add the data-instant-vary-accept option to disable preloading on Chromium < 110 for sites sending a Vary: Accept header. (Shopify sites are automatically opted-in and don’t need to specify it.)
- Preload with high priority (fetchPriority=high) on mouse/touch interactions.
- Fix cross-origin preloading in Chromium (using the non-standard as=document, which might eventually disappear from Chromium).
- Disable (non-working) cross-origin on non-Chromium browsers.
- Comments in the source code now cover almost everything I know about prefetch and instant.page’s logic.
