Apart from the number of relays that you connect to, the profile pictures and images that get loaded on your feed as your scroll or visit someones profile also contribute to high bandwidth usage. Some profile pictures are as large as 10-20 MB (especially gifs).

Nostr band mentions this https://media.nostr.band/ and has a media caching server to compress images in real time. Maybe clients (especially mobile clients) can use this or provide options to disable gifs or handle large images being displayed?
