Hi everyone,
I recently did a fresh install of DNN 10 and noticed that out of the box, images are being served in full resolution without any optimization.
When I run performance audits (Lighthouse/PageSpeed), I’m getting a Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) value of 13+ seconds, which is marked as poor. The culprit seems to be full-size images being loaded immediately, even when scaled down visually on the page.
Performance and Optimization Broken on DNN site
thanks johnhenley :)

I guess you are new ot DNN? DNN does not do any sever side scaling of images by default. There are options but those depend on the used module(s). Structured content modules like OpenContent and 2SXC allow you to do add this kind of control.
