“ I got that 280k Discord favicon down to just 24K simply by opening it in GIMP and saving it again. “

You made me laugh out loud.

I agree that stuff like YouTube.com saying 144x but really 145x seems like it should be embarrassing.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was for a specific reason, like somehow showing up better somewhere for some reason, or something like that. Or maybe not; who knows...
