well, mostly it helps with loading pages or images on slower connections. also it helps anyone who wants to save an image from the wiki by ensuring that it's not unnecessarily bloated, as most pngs are, especially screenshots taken directly from minecraft. all of this is done losslessly btw, so there isn't any downgrade in quality whatsoever. looking at some of the images i've come across, i'm not the first person to do this, and i'm not even the first person to use fileoptimizer to do it. also, a lot of what i've been doing has been editing pictures by cropping them down to the image itself (as some have extra white space or transparent space on them for no reason), making or remaking images transparent (as some of them have been done poorly and have blur around the edges), cropping pictures down to the relevant part of it (especially with gui elements) and cleaning up and properly formatting references (which is something i'll focus on when i've finished up optimizing more images, alongside trying to track down missing version of minecraft and/or screenshots & footage of it).
if you wanna do the same thing, feel free to do so! c:
