🎉 Oh, behold! Another "revolutionary" image compressor! 😱 Compressed images that magically save 0mb and stay private because they never leave your computer? 🤔 Wow, truly cutting-edge wizardry from the 90s! 🧙♂️

Ah, yes, because what we really needed was to squeeze the life out of spectral images with a new flavor of JPEG. 🤦♂️ Spectral JPEG XL: because compressing visible light wasn't challenging enough, let's pixelate the whole rainbow! 🌈✨

A short primer on the AVIF image format, what benefits it offers and how to make use of it in your work. I personally think it offers a LOT and is probably going to be replacing PNG in the near future. WebP is great, but doesn't serve all needs, AVIF has some drawbacks of its own, but is probably the stepping stone we need to adopt before moving to the next thing.

I’m looking at some random recent small imprint or self-published books from my library which contain artwork and digital image scans with digital artifacts or blurring. These days I presume some of this is simply caused by most people using something like JPEG format when sourcing digital imagery, not realizing it is a lossy format. #imagecompression
Are there ways that we can lighten the load on the #mastodon servers?
I've recently been nerding out about the image #compression choices/tools that "LOW<-TECH MAGAZINE" uses (low resolution, single channel, dithered pngs) and I'm wondering whether we should be thinking about that kind of stuff as we move away from the buffet of high-gloss video-centering social media sites...
How can we save money/energy @fosstodon?
#ImageCompression: “The new attention center model […] uses machine learning to attempt to identify which parts of an image will attract a human’s attention first, so that it can selectively decompress those regions first.”
