Why was this Pixiv version deleted? It's bigger file size than the Twitter version. Shouldn't the Twitter version be deleted instead?

Just undeleted it to have a look at it, and it turns out that It's the twitter version that has a bigger file size this time (497KB vs. pixiv's 496KB).

Back to deleted for now (was deleted by the uploader themselves).
I've re-downloaded both version and compared them again, the Pixiv version is 515.95 KiB, while the Twitter version is 505.84 KiB.
I've also tried to upload the Pixiv version here but failed due to the reason "This post already exists: post #613667".

It's said that yande.re removes some of the stuff from the uploads (e.g. some of the EXIF). Not sure if this is related to the size differences.
The collective term is called "Metadata" and it travels with the image file as well as increasing the size of the file.

Some examples:

File info data: pixel dimensions and file size.
Technical data: Camera EXIF, Scanner, software used.
Descriptive data: Keywords, creator, website
Administrative data: Copyright and Licensing details.
Twitter now no longer re-compresses JPEG images up to 4096*4096px and 5MB [1].

So it's possible both Twitter version and Pixiv version have exactly same quality pixel-wise, which is the case here

C:\sync\code\python\image_compare>image_compare.py "yande.re 613595 r_o_ha sweater.jpg" "yande.re 613667 image.jpg"
Sizes are identical! (1500x2566)
Color modes are identical! (RGB)
They are pixel-wise identical.

Right. Mentioned the well quality of a Twitter image on post #613647 before.

Good to know Pixiv > Twitter is not a constant anymore.
That explained those high quality and bigger file size of recent Twitter images.
