Windows "Paint" will do that even if Inkscape will not.

My issue is that the size restriction was relaxed for jpg, why not relax them too for png? Until a few months ago, you couldn't post a pdf as an attachment if it was over 200 kb, now the limit is 5 mb.
The original of the pic attached to this reply is a 2991 x 996 px PNG image of 521 kb. If I convert it to JPG with minimal quality loss it turns into a 644 kb file. If I choose the default 80% compression ratio, the resulting jpg is 237 kb but the image is now blurry. All 3 files are the same width/height.
