   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.

• 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

• 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

• How do you deal with tech support that doesn't believe you?

  I'm using shared hosting currently. I use statically.io's CDN, free WP integration, which is caching on multiple PoP servers (Cloudflare, Cloudfront, Google Cloud, Bunny, and Fastly--also it's supported by Digital Ocean). Before I use statically, my TTFB was always red on webpagetest.org; when using statically, it turns to green on webpagetest.org! But it won't be the only solution for you. Just do your best, or...
