i'd prefer not to upload all my images to some random fucks server

Why the fuck HEIC is pushed in the current year?

@BotBot Cause apple

Imma need to buy smaller brushes if I wanna make this look good

cuz it's much more efficient lol

id prefer my entire development environment wasnt owned and controlled by a single corporation

@Limmat just seen the advice of using dropbox on a thread, auto upload/convert and storage

eh

there's probs something on github

The only thing I like about apple is their actual commitment to privacy

Doubt

sweet

They bent over to the chinese

CopyTrans HEIC for Windows allows windows integration too @Limmat

Sauce?

https://www.copytrans.net/copytransheic/

you can switch but i like HEIF for file size saving and HEVC because 4k 60fps video

are they even smaller than jpgs?

yes

twice as much information at same size

doubt

it's legit tho

ill stick to my normal process lol, lose too much shadow definition based off of that image

ah right, no it isnt better compression, its just a format for multi-images, nested transforms and derived images

@BotBot Interesting, but with that it is basically "comply or get the yeet" cause unlike the west, china is a big scary presence

are they dropping out colour ranges to conserve size maybe?

idk how it works

i've just found when i take photos in HEIC they're like half the size with no perceivable quality loss

it doesnt work well enough for me based off samples comparing shots

Yeah it looks like there are bits of colors "unified" as opposed to jpeg where it is more artifacty

well there isnt like a single type of jpg format

What about android photo quality?

lmao

yeah true on the one with multiple jpegs there is a lot of variance

@BotBot Not really surprised tho lmfao "Apple is so much safer" can suck my dick
