Prevent Twitter from over-compressing your images
Twitimagefix launched on March 7, 2018 with 104 votes, #374 of 2,954 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 8 years on.
What it does
Twitter recently made it so that any tweeted image gets a ton of ugly JPEG compression added to it... The exception is, if you upload a picture with transparency in it. This app takes any image you drop on it, and gives it back to you as a PNG with one pixel at 99% opacity, which is enough for Twitter to consider it "a transparent image".
Starting today, Twitter will preserve JPEGs as they are encoded for upload on Twitter for Web. (Caveat, cannot have EXIF orientation) For example: the attached photo is actually a guetzli encoded JPEG at 97% quality with no chroma subsampling. https://t.co/1u37vTopkYfrom ravenworks.ca
