The better solution would be fix Anubis and optimise its calculations on iPhone. Maybe it needs WebAssembly hashing implementation instead of JS? But it would just make Anubis suck a little bit less Anubis "protection"…

JPEG photos stored as progressive usually take ~5% less space so there is value. And it is possible to losslessly transcode JPEG to progressive. Lossless transcoding to JPEG XL gives even more space savings though.
What if government websites were distributed & archived as a default, from the beginning? Think IPFS as a first target for publication, "normal web" only as a mirror. Is it feasible? Should we push for this default?…
