Image compression and scaling for CMS Rich Text images

The compression and scaling of images like described on https://webflow.com/feature/responsive-images does not seem to happen with images inside a Rich Text element. This results in a very slow pagespeed for my blog posts.

Would be great to add the responsive image code to images uploaded to Rich Text elements, so they are also scaled and compressed automatically like regular images.

    not scaling images but.

    you can compress images, reduce their width/height, change format, compress, generate great alt-text and file name - everything in 1 app - https://websiteoptimizer.pl/en

    The app can handle all types of images: in Rich text fields, just images and Multiimage fields

    This was requested two years and was reviewed... does that mean it is not going to be done because websites WILL be penalized for core web vitals scores come March 2024, and it is impossible to currently get a good mobile score if you use images on your CMS collection pages.
