"Using this custom plug-in we reduced the total weight of the 623 images that are on the blog so far by 89%. From 194.2MB to a mere 21.3MB." Dithering Image Compression from video games applied to webdesign :marseypikachu2:

https://homebrewserver.club/low-tech-website-howto.html#image-compression

I found a website that does homebrew webserver guides and one of them had a guide on a website able to run off solar power due to be so light weight. One of the techniques they use is dithering image compression I thought might be cool to see on here. They include their plugins and repos too.

Website bloat is insane these days. A website serving nothing but text will be hundreds of megs just for the web ui.

Google says core web vitals are a ranking signal but the reality is they either aren't or they aren't one strong enough to matter in any meaningful way. Every top ranking site in existence is trash in all aspects of user experience and web vitals best practices. Source: am actually professional SEO, sort of specialise in CWV.

Lowering color depth reduces image footprints?
