This is a lifesaver! We’re using it as a temp fix we’re having with srcset images
not loading from a CDN properly. Thanks!

I’m amazed how simple this plugin is. It didn’t completely remove the ‘srcset’ attribute
but only removed the extra image sizes it contains. I was using retina support, 
so it kept the 1x and 2x sizes in srcset but removed all other sizes. Perfect plugin!
Huge thanks to the developers/contributors.

We had several sites with the issue on high-res mobile screens, with Wordpress core
serving up severely pixelated images on responsive themes. Ditto on @secludedsea
comment above. Unacceptable, Wordpress! Fix the issue and give us the control in
future releases. Are you kidding? Also worked on 4.2.2 for whatever that’s worth.

We had a problem after a theme update. After the update, and regenerating thumbnails
using a plugin, images were consistently sized on a Windows desktop and a Surface
Pro, but not on at least one iPad. On the iPad some featured images in post lists(
widgets) were reduced in size, making the site look inconsistent. I don’t know whether
it was the theme, Wordpress, or who-knows-what, but this plugin fixed that. Thank
you!
