A lot is going on in the Bugzilla issue for JPEG XL support… 👀

It really looks like JPEG XL is finally coming to Firefox! 😍

I got tired of Android photo tools that uploaded my files to a remote server just to resize them. I needed something that processed everything locally, kept my data private, and gave me exact control over compression quality.

So I built ImageSlim Pro. It handles batch resizing and format conversions directly on your device—no cloud required. If you manage a lot of photos and care about your pixels, give it a look.

ImageSlim - Free Online Image Resizer, Compressor and Size Reducer

Free online tool to instantly resize, reduce image size, and compress photos. Convert WebP/HEIC to JPG. Best image size reducer and photo resizer.

I got tired of sending my images to random third-party servers just to shrink them for a project. It felt like a privacy risk and broke my flow.

So I built ImageSlim. It processes JPG, PNG, and WebP files entirely locally in your browser—no server uploads required. It's a simple, free utility to reduce file sizes without visible quality loss, keeping your workflow fast and your data yours.

@wyatt @kawa There have been a few attempts at "lossy PNG". One method, anticipated by the standard, involves reducing colors in a continuous-tone image to store it in indexed mode. The other involves adjusting pixels of 24-bit images to be better predicted by PNG's line filter, giving more zero bytes for DEFLATE to use

🚀✨ Oh wow, another "revolutionary" 16-byte image compressor that promises to save the world one blurry pixel at a time. Just what we needed: a lightweight alternative to the alternatives 🤔😂. Because who doesn't dream of turning their images into glorified smudges? #Innovation 💡🙄

DebugBear: What is JPEG XL: do we really need another image format?. “In 2018, the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) issued a call for proposals for the ‘next-generation image compression’. Numerous proposals were submitted, but only two were selected to proceed, one by Cloudinary (FUIF) and one by Google (PIK). The two were eventually combined to create JPEG XL (often shortened to JXL), […]

OK, OK, I'm going to say something here.

I like JPEG XL image compression format.
(Usual expected file extension: .jxl)

I think it's a very cool image format that I wish had more widespread adoption.

Go, WASM, ReScript로 이미지 압축기를 재구현했다는 게시물입니다. 개발자는 MiniMax_AI와 cursor_ai로 작업했으며 leerob의 작업을 재현하려고 시도했다고 밝혔습니다. 아직 약간 버그가 있지만 PNG와 JPG 압축이 동작하며, 압축 알고리즘 학습과 WebAssembly 기반 응용 사례를 보여주는 프로젝트입니다.

I recreated an image compressor using Go, WASM, and ReScript! 🛠️ Built with @MiniMax_AI and @cursor_ai. I wanted to see if I could replicate @leerob work. I’ve learned so much about compression algorithms in the process. It's still a bit buggy, but it works for PNGs and JPGs!
