What it does

Compress and optimize images with Optimus. Smart compression of images in WordPress. Convert JPEG or PNG to WebP.

Accelerating websites is extremely important. Faster websites mean satisfied customers. PageSpeed becomes significant for rankings. Optimus targets a lossless compression of PNG images and a slightly lossy compression of JPEG images of media uploaded to WordPress — while focusing on protecting your data. In plain terms: the visual appearance of treated images does not change in any way. The plugin slims down the original image and all preview images of an uploaded image. An important difference to desktop and online optimization tools: Photoshop , ImageOptim , JPEGmin and TinyPNG only treat the original images, since thumbnails are only generated when that image is uploaded to WordPress.…from optimus.io

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
