2/ Use a HTTP/2 CDN. Most CDNs support HTTP/2 by default now. Netlify is great (be aware that they are blocked in Russia right now though).
3/ WebP [1] has 80% support [2] now and is usually ~30% lighter than PNG/JPEG. Use it and fallback to PNG/JPEG on unsupported browsers. [1] https://t.co/IDDq3vUtm7 [2]
4/ Use srcset to always deliver the correct image size. Don't just deliver the high-resolution version.
5/ You can use Lighthouse as a bot that audits pull requests automatically for you.
