@bagder Hey Daniel, this weekend I attended a computer science conference in Istanbul. I participated in two workshops, Rust Blockchain and Go Backend, where I noticed that curl was used in both to download files. You came to mind during the class, and it reminded me that we need to contribute more to curl. The curl project operates quietly, without people really noticing it.
@bagder I think the number 30 and 1996-2026 shouldn't be used together since both referring to same thing, and makes it noisy. Writing "30 years" to one of the corners with smaller size than curl is okay, to me. My personal opinion.
Then, I optimized them all with jpegoptim, and the result was from 23.04 MB to 6.95 MB. The 16.09 MB difference is reflected as a slower image loading times. There was no noticeable change in image quality.

About three weeks ago, I informed my university TAÜ (Turkish-German University) about the image size on their website homepage www.tau.edu.tr. I received no response, and when I checked their website today, no fix. I was suggested using the jpegoptim tool. To measure the size savings, I downloaded the first 20 large image files from the tau.edu.tr homepage today. First, I converted them from lossless PNG format to lossy JPEG format and the size decreased......
