Here we are with a community celebrating art, some of us might like to archive it. But no, inevitably it’s google ‘owned’ transcoded, WebP. I have an extension to re-encode back to an old format, but that’s lossy-lossy transcoding, not good. I suspect it’s a Lemmy thing, but what would it take to get non-lossy here?
Oh interesting, this is a bit different than what I thought you were experiencing.
So when I visit that post from my instance that doesn’t happen. https://ani.social/post/4400463
It appears slrpnk.net is using a new feature called Image Proxying Its meant to protect you from data-mining and optimizes the data used.
I’m not aware of it theres a way to shut it off per user or not. I would recommend asking slrpnk.net’s admin.
