Feature Request: Image Compression on Upload
Not really, it depends on the level of compression. You can compress an image down to one tenth of it's size with unnoticeable loss of detail. (well at least for a reader quickly scrolling through an article). If the photos are the main subject of the article, less compression can be used.
The top photo below is about 1MB on disk.
The bottom photo is about 100kB.
There is some loss of detail visible, but reducing 10 times is drastic.
