We need to embrace WebP v2 for this kind of stuff. I took one of their images, resized it to 24x16px, and compressed it with Squoosh at 65% quality. It compresses to just 144 bytes. And it looks way way way better than these CSS gradients.

Cool app but no maintained library to use it in our own apps and scripts.

If you go to NPM the first thing it says in bold is "no longer maintained" and it links to the Google Chrome labs GitHub as well.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@squoosh/cli#project-no-longer...

So to clarify, is the GitHub maintained but the npm distribution is not? Or is none of it maintained unless you use the website/app?
