Please improve the "resize image"

C2 still wins in the smooth resizing of images. Can this be fixed?

DiegoM can you fix it?

This seems to be related to this chromium issue. Where the maximum quality when resizing doesn't produce the expected result.

C3 is using a browser feature to produce resized images when it is available, if it is not available, it falls back to our own implementation of a resizing algorithm, which I have noticed produces better results, the problem is that it isn't as efficient as the browser and it is prone to run out of memory.

For a while now the feature has been supported by browsers, so the custom resize logic isn't used. In any case, I prefer to not use that because the browser implementation will be way better, assuming it works. The problem is that there is no reasonable way to detect if the resizing is working properly or not to fallback to our resizing method.

Is this a problem in other browsers? Namely Firefox and Safari.

Really. Firefox coped well with resizing the image, unlike opera and edge.

But, this means that any browser problem that leads to a C3 problem is still a C3 problem for all users...

It makes sense that the problem is still present in Edge and Opera because much like Google's Chrome, they are based on the open source project, Chromium. So they pretty much have the same strengths and weaknesses.

Firefox and Safari are both unique, so they have different strengths and weaknesses.

I just checked the feature support and it seems that Firefox and Safari are falling back to our custom resize algorithm.

I will have yo try it out to be sure that is the case.
