Description

  • @gabrielluishernandez 's headshot is 20x bigger than it needs to be
  • First I thought that most images could do with being reencoded as webp or similar. [Altho Macs running an OS that is more than 2 years old do not yet support Webp]... Given our users often have years-old computers, I think we should refrain from reencoding for now

Research direction

Start by locating @gabrielluishernandez's headshot and the other image assets referenced by the website, then compare their dimensions and file sizes. Done means the unnecessarily large images are reduced while retaining a format compatible with the project's older Mac users; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
