Please Consider cssnano Instead of clean-css

👋 I'm working on a project that leverages html-minifier-terser and have long been a fan of the project. Unfortunately, it's using clean-css which has been unmaintained for some time now and the owner hasn't had time to give it bugfix updates in a while.

cssnano has been enjoying a lot of active development, and is built atop postcss which has a pretty proven track record. Postcss uses a tokenizer just as clean-css does, but somewhat more efficient, which should mean a speed boost. https://github.com/cssnano/cssnano

Would the project consider swapping clean-css for cssnano?

I am thinking about lightningcss recently. Haven't evaluated that yet

Rust speed is awesome. Unfortunately that'll also likely mean I won't be able to use it, as my project does run in browsers as well as the server and edge workers..

It ships a wasm library to run in browsers as well https://lightningcss.dev/docs.html#from-deno-or-in-browser.
