To preface a bit. I occasionally run my images through Sharp over CLI, and I am also a daily user of the Caesium desktop app. However, I haven't explored the details of how Caesium is implemented.
The biggest difference is that MAZANOKE targets a different user group, essentilly those who would use online tools over installing applications, which is something you see more of these days. I wanted my family and friends to have a safe drop-in replacement for those shady websites. For those who want to use a "native app", installing MAZANOKE as a PWA is also a great option.
In terms of core functionality, they are very similar and support the same output image formats. But at the end of the day, MAZANOKE is privacy-focused too, and have plans to add a simple image editor for obfuscation, cropping, and related features. You can also access MAZANOKE anywhere, whether it is self-hosted or on the official instance.
Fundamentally, MAZANOKE relies heavily on the device, and the browser's Canvas API. This means that the speed and quality could slightly differ depending on which device/browser you use. I believe Caesium's performance would be more consistent.
(I didn't know where to put this, but my favorite feature is being able to paste to compress an image right away using MAZANOKE.)
