How to choose

Choose around the real compression scenario

Choose direct compression when the main issue is file size before upload or publishing.

Choose WebP conversion when you also care about long-term website delivery efficiency.

Crop first when the image contains too much unused space, then compress the result.

For most web workflows, smaller dimensions plus moderate compression works better than aggressive quality loss.
