From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thank you! I don't have exactly the option but you put me in the right direction and I figured it out. Thank you!! got it down to 4.79 MB
Btw, media formats are not really compressible (e.g. zip, 7z, gz, etc.), because they are already compressed by specialized algorithms (png, jpg, avif, etc.).
Png to jpg should be more like 5x compression but maybe something else was going on. Anyway it sounds like the immediate is handled.
Dear OP, please edit the post title and insert [Solved] to prevent a 1000 more answers in the coming 5 years in this thread (and in the new comments time line), thank you :)
