Hi,

One unresolved browser inconsistency in the Canvas API is how image encoding quality affects chroma subsampling. 

In Firefox, chroma subsampling is turned off at quality >= 0.9, allowing crisp images to be exported from Canvas at relatively small file sizes (e.g. quality 92%). Chrome & Webkit only disable chroma subsampling at quality == 1.0 (100%), meaning that it's impossible to export a crisp canvas as a JPEG without also exporting a massive image.

I work at an online photo editor, and it means that we recommend Safari users save their images at 100% quality, and then use a different program to compress them (w/out chrome subsampling) before using them on a website. Other online photo editors bypass the browser altogether and load their own version of libjepg in WebAssembly. This seems a bit heavy-handed, and it'd be great if the browser default for Canvas produced images that were ready to use on the web.

Chrome recently opened a WHATWG issue for this, and it'd be great to hear from Safari.

Improving this small corner of the web platform would make Safari a better platform for our users. Thanks!
