Most of my stars are outlined when zoomed in after downsizing for Instagram. I've tried all options with output sharpening and removed all sharpening. What is the issue? Here is what I'm talking about https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZHrK611Ei3CEZGk17

  I just tried that and nothing changed. The dots are on the image itself and the output jpg

  Are you using a high setting of Clarity in your editing? Might that cause haloing?

  It seemed that it didn't change anything after removing the clarity but after doing a full reset on the file, it removed the halos

  I added clarity back and it did not create halos. I'll do further tests and come back

  Thank you!

  Sometimes haloes are more obvious on smaller versions of an image.

  You can probably find some guidance on line (YouTube videos etc) about editing settings for Astrophotography to get the best results and avoid artefacts. (Apologies if you have already seen that sort of thing. I haven't got into Astro at all.)

  I've been watching all the videos online for the tools as well.

  I used the same settings on the astrophotography video the was uploaded by capture one

  Thank you for the help Ian!
