Thank you for the support that I've received during the launch of MAZANOKE—a self-hosted local image optimizer that runs in your browser! It can run offline and is installable as a web app too.
This week, I've been addressing the feature that has been a bottleneck for the usability of an image optimizer, namely: batch upload and download.
Project page: https://github.com/civilblur/mazanoke
Highlights v1.0.1 (view release note)
- Upload multiple files simultaneously
- Images are processed one at a time to prevent excessive browser resource usage.
- Download all optimized images as a zip file.
- Files over 1GB are split into multiple zip files.
- Large downloads may take time, depending on hardware and browser.
- Option to clear optimized images from the "Images" section.
- Convert GIF and SVG to PNG.
- GIF-to-GIF optimization is not supported.
- SVG optimization is not planned.
Nice. I use Squoosh for this, which is also free and runs in the browser.

Even though this squoosh instance seems to be selfhosted, it has Google Analytics tracking (since Google made this app). MAZANOKE does not include any tracking nor require any internet connection at all if you install it as a PWA.
Edit: Looked at the source code of the fork, and it is applying the same tracking ID (to the big G). As squoosh is apache2 licensed, from my understanding, they should be able to simply remove that off the fork?
Sounds like an oversight. Consider filing a bug with them.
