I'm ballparking, but 2/3 designers that I collaborated with don't compress images before handling them to the developers — and they are top-notch designers. It's like some of us don't name their layers, which doesn't necessarily make a designer good or bad. Most popular reason that I heard when asking „why?” was because „compression screws the image quality”. I'm happy to see products like this that offer lossless compression. By the way, there are many free alternatives out there but the one I really like is ImageOptim. They also have a web API for image compression. — https://imageoptim.com/mac

@perte I'm a web designer & front-end developer. You'd be amazed to hear the arguments I have with myself over this very issue. It plays out like Edward Norton beating himself up in Fight Club. True story.
