Congrats on shipping.

However, the "Privacy First" and "No Ads" claim gets eroded pretty quickly by cookies, and requests to trackers like n.clarity.ms, google-analytics and adtrafficquality.google.

Note - I don't actually have an issue with any of those things - if you wanna monetize this service through analytics and ads, that's up to you. But it's at odds with your privacy first claims.

Yeah, I made a local image compressor/converter for myself that's actually private: https://github.com/blopker/alic
