Don't use this junk. I installed the extension. I tried to use it. It told me that I didn't have any tokens. So I looked around some more and it told me that I had to "Sing In". As you can see, they have a spelling mistake. It should be "Sign In". I didn't have an account so I clicked on the "Register" link. The "Register" link would not work. So I used right-click, open in new Tab, and that opened up the website to register. They should have put a note, "Right-click and open in new Tab to Register" or something. I registered. I was told that I was on a free plan and could get like 999999 free images per month. I then went to the tab with the Gif that I wanted to compress. It gave me an "Image not Found" error even though their extension claims to work with Gifs and it was the only image on the page. So I went back to their website and clicked on "Account" and looked for the Account Deletion link. There wasn't one. I freaking hate websites that don't have Account Deletion links and require you to email them a dozen times and jump through all sorts of hoops just to close and delete your account. And there is no guarantee that they will even respond or delete it for you. I will probably be getting spam from them each month. If I don't hear from them in a few weeks, I'll change my email address on my account to something else. Anyway, you can see this extension is garbage and put me through a miserable time. UPDATE: I discovered an alternative method to use Squeezeimg. Instead of clicking the Extension button and clicking Optimize, just move the mouse cursor to the image and right click it and select Compress or whatever. I did that and it compressed the Gif from 36.6 MB to 21 MB. That was on the Low Compression setting. I then changed it to High Compression and refreshed the page and tried to compress it. Once again, it was 21 MB. This doesn't work for me. I wanted to compress to a SPECIFIC SIZE for when I share on Discord. Discord won't accept files that are too large. So this extension is no good for me and was a real headache. Uninstalling now.
