Use WebP Instead of JPG for ImagessteemCreated with Sketch.

Going to start uploading photos in WebP now instead of jpeg/jpg. The benefits really are significantly better than jpg. Also, for the love of god... Stop using GIFs for animations! Just use MP4 or WebM. LOL

Better to upload a smaller video file without any audio than use a bloated GIF. It really is more efficient and faster on uploads, plus you won't use up so much space on a silly gif.

I generally use Gimp to edit images and XnConvert to convert images to webp. You may also need to download some encoders for it. Jpeg is just as fine too.

Gifs for sure are better as mp4s tho.
