Additional details
- Does anyone make so many screenshots that the size matters? [Emma's example: 187 files/308 MB]
- Is potential quality loss worth the smaller size?
- Could this cause some unexpected problems for users who want to share them?
I prefer PNG screenshots. I actually use the included Fabrishot mod a lot for taking 2x size screenshots (5120x2880) to get great screenshot quality. These screenshots are around 20 MB in size when shaders are enabled. While this may be a concern for some, I personally don't really mind. I can always compress them (convert to JPG, reduce resolution etc.) when needed, but this way I at least have the option of using the lossless screenshot.
So I personally wouldn't use this feature, but there might be some people who prefer smaller screenshots in the first place, not wanting to deal with converting/resizing or whatever.
