Hey Indie Hackers,

​Most online file compressors force you to upload private data to external servers. It’s slow, and honestly, a massive privacy risk.

​To solve this, I built squeezes—a dead-simple, blazing-fast file compression web application that runs entirely client-side right in your browser. Since the compression logic executes locally via JavaScript, your files never leave your device.

​The Tech & Design Stack:

​Privacy-First: 100% local processing (zero backend server storage).

​Quality: Fully lossless compression.

​UI/UX: Built with a modern, dark-themed, glassmorphic interface to make the utility feel premium and seamless.

​It is completely free, hosted on Vercel, and live right now.

​I’d love to get your feedback on the interface and performance:

​Does the value proposition make sense the second you land on the page? How does the compression speed feel on your end?
