The recommended image size for X (Twitter) feed posts is 1600×900 pixels at a 16:9 ratio. This displays fully in the timeline without cropping. Square images at 1200×1200 also work well, particularly on mobile. Avoid very tall portrait images as X crops them to a 2:1 ratio in the feed preview.

What size should an X (Twitter) header image be?

Does X (Twitter) compress uploaded images?

Yes. X compresses images on upload. Uploading at the correct dimensions at high JPEG quality reduces the compression X applies, resulting in a sharper final image. PNG format is preserved for images that require it, but JPEG is recommended for photographs.
