Hi there! I ended up on the Performance doc page
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/topics/performance/#third-party-
services) and noticed a link and recommendation to Yahoo's Yslow for
general (non-Django) page speed debugging.

I think we should probably remove this reference; Yslow no longer is
shipped as a chrome extension, and has not been updated in over a decade.
I'd suggest (no affiliation besides happy user!) GTmetrix as a
replacement.

Comment:

Thank you, Dustin. I agree with you. We should remove the two examples and
avoid adding any specific tool names, as we risk recommending an outdated
or unsupported tool in the near future.
