Hi @maofree,

yes, using decoding="async" isn't a bad idea.
I am adding this to Falcon 4 roadmap.

Agreed, decoding="async" is a good default, but loading="lazy" should not be used on any image that visible on load.
You could implement some sort of bounding box check to detect images not currently in view on load, but that defeat the purpose.
