Random Code Inspiration Volume 2
image-shrinker is a simple, easy to use open source tool for shrinking images. Under the hood it uses pngquant, mozjpg, SVGO, and gifsicle. You can also install these tools individually if you need to compress some images. I often use pngquantafter exporting PNGs for web projects from Figma or similar tools. I literally run it like this:
-
keeping collection size down (for ankiweb) when needing lots of image cards/notes
Searching more I found https://pngquant.org/ which I could add to my bulk workflow to make most png's approach the jpeg size.
-
screen capture/snapshot utility with image optimization support/configurability
But this did prompt me to do some searching, and I see https://pngquant.org/ which seems to achieve jpeg like size reduction while maintaining the file as a png. One difference they note is that this method will typically preserve sharp edges better than jpeg (which is probably a strong plus for my type of use case)

If use PNG you can use pngquant 2 for instance. More modern image formats may also compress your images further.
