Thanks for the kind words :)

When you mention padding, do you mean between posts, inside the post cards, between comments, between other ui elements, all of the above? And I'm assuming the new "Compact Preview" setting was at least a step in the right direction for you?

If you mean Cloudflare Images, then no. I thought about using it, but since Mbin stores the sha hash of the images, I didn't want Cloudflare to serve an optimized image and then Mbin (or an Mbin app) check the hash and see it didn't match. Additionally, I believe Mbin does some sort of optimization anyway (there's a "cache" directory that's likely the optimized and resized versions of the original images). Unfortunately, this "cache" isn't used with the Mbin API (and, therefore, any external client). IMO, the best place to optimize the image is when it's first federated or uploaded anyway.

From what I know, cloudflare images also costs more than just serving the existing image through R2.

There's a calculator here if you'd like to try a certain setup (amount of storage & operations).
