Do you have a general stance about it?
Once every couple of months I look into the state of both projects and it’s slow but steadily progressing.
I am mainly looking into it because of the file compression. My tests showed that I can save up to 70% in disk space for a jpg image without losing too much information for both formats, avif and jxl. It depends on the images but in general it’s astonishing and I wonder why I still save jpgs in 100% quality.
But, I could also just save or convert my whole library to 70% jpg compression. Any advice?
Hdd space is free?? Where do you live?

“essentially free” not technically free.
A typical picture as an uncompressed BMP would cost $0.00001725
Thats 57,980 pictures for a dollar.

Price per MB = Price per TB / 1,000,000
Ohhh, got it. The whole file size thing went through my head.
