I have tested lossless image compression with Trimage.
Trimage is a GUI and a CLI tool and easy to use. The compression will not be huge but some and it will remove all Exif information which is maybe the biggest benefit.
So I installed it and fired up the GUI.
This is the easiest program in the world to use; just drag the image to Trimage and it will be compressed - just like that. It only works on Jpg and Png but that is a lot.
When dealing with entire directories I find the CLI better to use. To compress everything in the Pictures directory you can go to ~/ and do a:
This will compress all images in the directory and remove all Exif info!
To compress a single file in the Cli:
Works just fine!
