Method to Know Whether Notion Compress Images

Step 1: Upload an image file in Notion, but there’s a catch, just note the size of the image before uploading on the platform.

Step 2: Once the image is uploaded in Notion, simply download the same uploaded image.

Because Notion does not work offline, you have to keep your device connected to the internet to save changes.
