#### `MASTODON_USE_LIBVIPS`
By default, Mastodon uses ImageMagick to process images in posts. As an alternative, [libvips](https://www.libvips.org) 8.13+ can be utilized, which has better performance and lower resource utilization.
When installing Mastodon from source, this defaults to `false`, set to `true` to enable.
When deploying the Mastodon project container image, this is hardcoded to `true` and should not be overridden.
