MAZANOKE is a simple image optimizer that runs in your browser, works offline, and keeps your images private without ever leaving your device.
Created for everyday people and designed to be easily shared with family and friends, it serves as an alternative to questionable "free" online tools.

Highlights from v1.1.0 (view full release note)
I'm delighted to present some much-requested features in this release, including support for HEIC file conversion!
- Added support to convert
HEIC,AVIF→JPG,PNG,WebP. - Paste image/files from clipboard to start optimization.
- When setting a file size limit, you can switch between units MB and KB.
- Remember last-used settings, stored locally in the browser.
The support from the community has been incredibly encouraging, and with over 4500 docker pulls, the project is now humbly making its way toward a 500 stars milestone.
The project also received its first donation, which I'm incredibly grateful for!
This is my to-go solution before sending photos to someone. Excellent service!
But I miss adding options in Docker, for an example default quality. I often clear cookies and other data so it's kinda tedious to select the same options over and over again :)
I'm glad to hear it's being used frequently! I've heard a similar, but not exactly the same use case, so I recommend submitting a feature request on GitHub. That way, I can review it later to assess if the feature could be included when I plan ahead for new releases.
And if someone doesn't have an account at GitHub? :) Can you please upload MAZANOKE to Codeberg? I rather use Codeberg (Germany) than GitHub (USA (Microsoft)).
As a Lemmy user myself, I totally get the sentiment. GitHub isn’t ideal, and I had also considered Codeberg in the past (not for this project, but way back for others). Unfortunately, the simple reason is that the community is already on there, which makes getting contributions and engagement much easier. Managing and tracking issues across two platforms would be quite (mentally) taxing, which is on top of the effort already going into developing the app.
I understand :) But unfortunately, I will not create an issue on GitHub. Hopefully, someone else will do it in the future.
