Link's automatic prefetch (every strategy, including the app-wide default) now does nothing while navigator.connection reports saveData or a 2g/slow-2g effectiveType. The connection is read on each prefetch. Browsers without navigator.connection keep prefetching, and calling router.prefetch() directly is unaffected.

Link's automatic prefetching (every strategy, including
prefetch.defaultStrategy) now skips while the browser reports data saver or a 2G connection. Only Chromium reports these, so other browsers keep prefetching. An explicitrouter.prefetch()still runs.Precedent: Nuxt skips every
NuxtLinkprefetch on the same check. Astro skips them too, but still prefetches on tap.Tests:
prefetchLinkunit tests for data saver, 2G/slow-2G, faster or unreported connections, and a connection change between prefetches.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
