Edit Image Thumbnails Separately
Description
Separate editing of image thumbnails is deprecated and disabled since WordPress 6.3. This plugin re-enables it in order to maintain specific user requirements and workflows.
WordPress has been using responsive images since version 4.4. Because of that having custom, non-proportional image sub-sizes is not considered a good practice. It reduces the number of images that can be used for responsive loading, and at the same time produces an image that cannot be loaded responsively as there are no other matching sizes for it.
To re-enable editing and saving of image thumbnails separately, install and activate this plugin. To disable it again, deactivate and delete the plugin.

It helps with creating custom thumbnails from the featured image, that are shown in search engine results (and if there’s another way to create them, I have no idea what it is).

FFS as if loading an extra 150-pixel image is that big of a problem these days, particularly when it’s often the ONLY version of the image that’s called by the theme on a given page. 🙄 The point of “responsiveness” is usability, so removing this functionality from core is actually a LESS responsive approach in cases where the large image loses all of its legibility/visibility/attractiveness and thus value to the page when it is scaled down – for example headshots of people where there is only room for their cropped-in face on small screens.
Anyway thanks for releasing this, works great. Please don’t abandon it.
