Something like that could be also interesting for a Lemmy frontend to make it easier to share images on instances that have strict upload limits.
Yes indeed, the library I used "Browser Image Compression" is quite easy to work with. I did this as a weekend project + a few more days to prepare for open sourcing.
I'd love if there was a way to hook this onto apps like discord to automatically compress images too big to upload
Probably could be used with betterdiscord that supports js plugins.
Pretty sure Vencord is what's used now. It's what I use at least because it's preinstalled with Vesktop.
Nah, Betterdiscord is still alive and kicking. And it still has the best image utility plugin.
Ah I see, I'm still on webcord to be honest (not for any particular specific reason).
For windows the powertoys resize extension works great, just a right click option to easily make images smaller.
Sidenote: A similar app is https://squoosh.app/
This has analytics tracking and is made by Google though. I intentionally wanted to stray away from that.
Edit: typo
Amen. Time for a star+ download
Installed. It's great! Easy and fast. I'll be using this almost daily. Thank you.
Cool! I was just thinking about putting something like this together.
I'll check it out today!
Damn this is something I need to look into.
It would be nice if it worked in Node.js
Does node have access to a browser compression command? It kinda defeats the purpose of running it entirely in the client’s browser and offloading the processing from the server.
Sharp or Jimp run in it instead right?
^disclaimer, I’m still running rmagick in ruby and don’t play with the cool new toys as much these days).^
Okay now do videos
