Image compression is lossless.. I really should call that out on the home page. Demo / examples are definitely on my list.. here's an example PR for you: https://github.com/shrinkrayio/demo-images/pull/6
I believe metadata gets stripped out, which is how I get some lossless size reduction for jpgs. In my experience, this is not something that we've been interested in preserving on our images (use case - websites).
Would you be looking at using this to compress some photos for personal use, or for a photography website? What would be your use case?
