About Saving Visitors' Bandwidth on a Website with Audios
To avoid preloading all audio data in <audio> tags, use one of the following approaches with the preload attribute:
Show the widget with 0:00 as audio length
<audio preload="none" controls src="{{ post.audio.url }}">
</audio>
Show the correct audio length
<audio preload="metadata" controls src="{{ post.audio.url }}">
</audio>
