Lossy compression? #7

Closed ripefig closed 5 years ago

ripefig commented 5 years ago

I know it says "lossless", but lossy would be much more useful since the common case for compression is to prepare the image for sharing. Lossless only shaves off about 10% off most images, and it does so very slowly. Thus is doesn't really do much for most users.

Thank's for the suggestion. I'm thinking of how to implement this feature. Duplicate of #6.
