Medium image optimization tips
Use these before you upload or share the page.
Aim for under 200KB per image — Medium recompresses anyway, so a 2MB original only slows your story down.
Use JPEG at 80% quality for photos; keep PNG only for screenshots with text or sharp graphics.
Resize to Medium's content width (about 1400px) before uploading — larger originals add load time with no visible benefit.
