yes of course, wasm is far superior. we are 10 years farther, after all. it just reminded me that the problem of resizing before upload exists for at least a decade, even solutions exist for at least a decade, yet it’s still rarely being solved. maybe it’s not the biggest problem, so devs focus on other stuff.
