inShowerthought: Why do art platforms keep changing their image upload rules?
Totally feel that about the fuzzy edges. I tried using a "smart" compression tool on some lineart last month to meet a size limit, and it introduced these weird color banding artifacts in what should have been smooth gradients. Had to basically start the export process over from scratch. Sometimes the fix makes it look worse than just uploading a smaller version would have.

inTIL my overreliance on one news article sent me on a wild goose chase
But @cameronjenkins, going straight to the source isn't always doable. Original case files can be huge and full of legal talk that's hard to understand. In my experience, a good summary cuts out the noise and gets to the point faster. Those files can also have mistakes or leave things out, just like summaries can. Sometimes you trust the person who wrote the summary because they know what matters. Relying on others to filter info saves your own time for digging into other parts of the story.
