Can we just get rid of lossy image compression, please? It's so unpleasant looking at pictures on social media and watching them degrade over time as they are constantly reposted. What will these pictures look like a century from now?
- adamzochowski 3y agoPlease, keep lossy compression. Web is unusable already with websites too big as it is. What should happen: websites/applications shouldn't recompress images if they already deliver good pixel bitrate. Websites/applicates shouldn't recompress images just to add own watermarks.
- npteljes 3y agoIt's not the social network's job to preserve image quality. That would be mixing up the concerns.
- account42 2y agoIt's not the factory's job to preserve air quality. That would be mixing up concerns. It's not the fisherman's job to preserve ecosystem quality. That would be mixing up concerns.
- account42 2y agoThe problem here is not lossy image compression, but lossy re-compression.
