Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

As the number of blog posts grows, loading all posts at once could impact page load speed and performance. This makes the blog section less scalable.

Potential Benefits

• ✅ Faster initial page load time
• ✅ Improved scalability as more blogs are added

Describe the solution you'd like

Introduce infinite scrolling (lazy loading) to improve scalability.

• Load more blog posts dynamically as the user scrolls.

Hi @ritesh-raushan,

I suggested this issue as a potential enhancement for the blog section's scalability and performance. Since I raised it, I'd prefer to take ownership and work on the solution as mentioned in the issue. Thanks for your understanding!

By the way, this issue hasn't been approved yet. I’d recommend reviewing the CONTRIBUTING guidelines for a better understanding.

Hello @idanidan29 , this is not required. I gave this suggestion quite some time ago here - #1276

[idanidan29]

Thanks for letting me know, @Karan-Palan! The issue you mentioned indeed raises some valid points. Since pagination is no longer the most relevant solution, I believe implementing infinite scrolling (lazy loading) would be a great alternative. It would improve the initial page load time and significantly enhance scalability as more blogs are added.

Additionally, I think that in the long term, it will be necessary to create a scalable foundation to ensure the blog section can grow efficiently and remain performant as the number of posts increases.

I will update the issue for clarification

[Karan-Palan]

Yeah I had suggested that under the issue. Hopefully it gets accepted. Will be a great add on

[Karan-Palan]

Shall I work on it as I had suggested this before @benjagm ??

[idanidan29]

Hey @Karan-Palan, thanks for wanting to help! I noticed that in your suggestion, you mentioned pagination and not lazy scrolling. If you understand the idea and implementation of lazy loading, you could take on that issue since I'm currently handling other issues. I'd be happy to assist you if needed!

Thanks @idanidan29 , I'll work on it as I'm assigned, here's my suggestion for lazy loading - #1276 (comment)

Hi folks thanks for suggestions, But as you can see the blog websites like https://www.cncf.io/blog/ and https://grafana.com/tags/jaeger/ we don't need to perform pagination.

Applying lazy loading can be a good idea after a certain number of blogs.
