    The issue with jpegxl is that in reality jpeg is fine for 99% of images on the internet.

    If you need lossless, you can have PNG.

    “But JPEGXL can save 0,18mb in compression!” Shut up nerd everyone has broadband it doesn’t matter

      What a dumb comment.

      All of that adds up when you have thousands or tens of thousands of images. Or even when you’re just loading a very media-heavy website.

      The compression used by JPEG-XL is very, very good. As is the decoding/encoding performance, both in single core and in multi-core applications.

      It’s royalty free. Supports animation. Supports transparency. Supports layers. Supports HDR. Supports a bit depth of 32 compared to, what, 8?

      JPEG-XL is what we should be striving for.
