   Best tool to make images smaller or to figure out the right setting for batch work

   The only negative thing about this web app, is that it's not clear which formats are supported in which browsers.

• Replicate vs deAPI: Price Comparison for AI Inference (2026)

  You're building an app that generates images, transcribes audio, or synthesizes speech. Two API platforms keep showing up in your research: Replicate and deAPI. They run many of the same open-source models and charge per use. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Running AI models with Replicate and Encore

  Running AI models in production typically requires managing complex infrastructure, GPUs, and scaling challenges. Replicate simplifies this by providing a cloud API to run thousands of AI models without managing any infrastructure. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Effective Prompting for Generative Vision Models

  Before diving into how vision prompting works, let’s first look at where we can put it to the test. In this case, we’ll be using several endpoints available on Replicate, which we’ve optimized with Pruna to make them cheaper, faster, and more efficient. All of Pruna’s models are available here. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• The Real AI Startup Stack: $33M Valuations, $1.2K OpenAI Bills

  Take Perplexity they didn’t just call the OpenAI API; they built a full-stack retrieval engine with caching, ranking, and live search inference. Or Replicate, which gives developers an API to run open-source models at scale, no data center required. RunPod makes GPU clusters accessible for indie builders, and Mistral is shipping models that make even GPT-4 blink twice. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Can you build a recognizable World Map in under 500 bytes?

  Its a fun challenge. I used https://squoosh.app to make a pretty good one. Mostly just a resize and then OxiPNG for compression. Managed a 124x62 black/white image. OP has a resolution of 195x53, so I had very similar, but slightly worse I think? Mostly a different aspect ratio + map projection I think. Playing with Squoosh.app is very fun, and you can very easily see how the jump from 500b to ~1.5kb turns a map... - Source: Hacker News / 19 days ago

• Speed Up Your WordPress Site in 30 Minutes: A No-Plugin Performance Guide

  Use a free tool like Squoosh (by Google) to batch convert your existing images to WebP. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Free Browser Tools for Developers Who Make Content

  Every image goes through Squoosh before it lands in any repo I own. Drag the file in, pick WebP or AVIF, drag the quality slider until the preview still looks clean, download. The size reduction is usually 60–80% with no visible quality loss. It runs entirely locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded anywhere. For a performance-conscious developer this matters. Best for: Pre-commit image optimisation, blog... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Rust WASM vs TypeScript Performance: Why the 'Faster' Language Lost by 25% [2026]

  The Squoosh image compression app from Google is a great example. It runs codecs like MozJPEG and WebP entirely in WASM, processing large image buffers with minimal boundary crossings. Near-native compression performance, right in the browser. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Flutter App Taking Too Long to Start? Here's What You're Doing Wrong

  For images, tools like TinyPNG or Squoosh can reduce file sizes dramatically, often by 60-80%, with little to no visible quality difference. For your splash screen specifically, consider using a simple vector image (SVG) or even a plain color with your logo instead of a heavy raster image. Flutter's native splash screen supports this out of the box and it's blazing fast. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
