Image resizing is one of those things that most companies seem to build in-house over and over. There are several hosted services, but obviously sending your users photos to a 3rd party is pretty weak. For those of us looking for a middle-ground: I've had great success with imgproxy (https://github.com/imgproxy/imgproxy) which wraps libvips and well is maintained.
We use imgproxy[1] for doing the resizing. We utilize open source services for the entire stack, so that you can self-host Supabase.
These guys (https://evilmartians.com/) sure understands a thing or two about images and image compression. I have used their imgproxy[1] (Golang image resizer) for a long time and it has been solid from the very beginning.
