Unbloater is a simple and minimalist interface for cleaning up your WordPress admin dashboard and site code from unnecessary and not needed items. It mostly uses filters and actions to achieve fast and clean results. The settings screen is clean by itself, no additional styling or branding – that’s what the plugin stands for.
This plugin evolved out of my personal need to clean up sites for clients. The available options, especially for third party plugins, may therefore be biased. They might also be developer-focused in that the results work towards a cleaner site for non-technical users.

Do you know what is better for a website performance then installing a good caching plugin and getting more expensive hosting?
<h3>Not to load bloat in the first place!</h3>
This lightweight plugin is meant to do just that.
With this All-in-One plugin you can simply disable any feature that you do not use with one click.
If you change your mind and want feature back you can always re-enable it later.
You can also chose any combo of features that you do not want and make a custom selection for disabling.
<h3>Disable All of the Comments</h3>
(PRO version only)
If you are sick of SPAM or you do not need Comment Section so much then Disable them Completely with this one lightweight plugin.
<h3>Having Too Many Plugins Can Hurt Your Website</h3>
<ul>
<li>
Installing and activating numerous plugins on your website can affect your page load time and the performance of your site as a whole.
</li>
<li>
Plugin conflicts can result in slow-loading pages, error messages, or broken functionality. Ultimately, a plugin conflict can cause a website to crash.
</li>
<li>
Security risks. The more plugins you install, the greater the risk that you’ll download one with a security vulnerability.
</li>
<li>
Learning curves. Each plugin’s dashboard or settings interface is different and the time required to learn how to take advantage of each plugin quickly adds up. Plus, there’s often maintenance involved to ensure that each one functions properly.
</li>
</ul>
