You've listed Trimage as a similar tool, while it does only lossless optimization. Trimage does nothing really powerful for web usage.

Do you know a better alternative for Linux desktop?

Maybe compile imageoptim with GNUStep library ?

I've tried. GNUStep is not even close to supporting basic features ImageOptim needs.

There was a lot of changes in recent years. You could request help on the Gnustep list.

Anyway, Jehan (Gimp dev) was requested to work on a simple export plugin for Gimp using advanced technics.

Reason I ask is because I can see women launching their little ecommerce shop. They don't have enough time to learn how to work on images. While they are (and we are as customers) in need of such simple app like imageOptim.

I'm really not interested in GNUStep. I don't object to it in principle—it'd be lovely to be free the app from Apple's proprietary platform. However, Cocoa/ObjC is a complex moving target, and from what I can tell it has diverged far away from the oldschool subset that GNUStep implements. The amount of work to remove Apple-isms and abstract all the differences between the two seems to be way more than just writing a completely new app in GTK or Qt. If you insist it's usable, then please port ImageOptim to it yourself.

If there's an existing app that's better than Trimage I'm happy to link to it.

Fair enough. I was just asking. Thanks for your answer.
