@tdp_org This makes me so happy. I still shrink and compress images all the time for email, web, etc. because 99% of the time a huge multi-megabyte image just isn't needed.

@tdp_org On that article that works awesome, but when I tried it on other articles from WS main page I just get 404 :( https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-69008577.lite

@kravietz @tdp_org If it's on .co.uk , it's not a World Service article, it's a main BBC News article which runs on a different architecture.

Great to see these out in the real world! I was chatting to Toby Cox about it a few weeks ago and the potential use cases for it 👍

@tonypconway @kravietz Yep, spot on. It might be that this is a trailblazer which prompts the .co.uk stack to adopt it, the initial case is definitely compelling IMO.
Toby mentioned he'd be talking to you folks 👍🏻

@tdp_org that's one of the fastest loading news pages I've ever opened, dang. I might have to set up a local automatic redirect rule 'cos having a page load instantly, with no post-load jiggling around, is a really nice experience.
