JXL is my favourite squadron.
One of my smaller incentives for getting the family group chat off Messenger and onto Signal was to be able to share memes from Hexbear without converting them.
Support JXL
Whenever I hear someone mention JPEG XL allI think of is JPEG 2000.
Or maybe just stop inventing new file formats for no fucking reason
There are good reasons for why both JPEG-XL and WebP exist though.
Web dev reasons and regular people reasons are not the same things
JXL! JXL! JXL!
I was just complaining to a friend that I think it’s fucking absurd that Messenger still doesn’t work with webp but I now have an ‘imagine’ button for making stupid ‘AI’ art.
Oddly, reminds me of when Apple first pushed/forced HEIC on all of it’s users, without letting them know of course. Because of that, it caused thousands of students to fail their AP exams.
It’s sad.
Adoption rate does matter. HEIC currently has a 13.99% adoption, and WebP has a 95.92% adoption rate in web browsers.
So when considering support in softwate, it’s more reasonable to pick WebP as default, rather than HEIC.
There are of course other considerations, like compression efficiency, format features, patents, …
The irony is if I download this meme, it will be in webp format 😐
Only from the Lemmy image view, but the original is JPEG and you can download it too.
Why would I want webpee
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Its funny since i can just rename it to a jpeg alot of the time and it loads on irfanview.
