To my knowledge it's lossless in CD quality only, in high-res modes it becomes lossy

FLAC is a lossless compression format. It will reduce file size but keeps the audio quality. So-called "high-res" format on streaming platform like spotify (mandatory fuck spotify here) are usually mp3 320kbps so heavily compressed and lossy, indeed.
