Fuck webp, use JPEG XL*. It supports lossless and lossy compression, and it's compression is on par or better than webp. It also isn't entirely designed by Google.

* With JPEG fallback. Google, being Google, blocked the addition of JXL decoding in Chrome and Android.

Only Apple supports JPEG XL.
Neither Chromium nor Firefox supports it (Chromium needs an extension and in Firefox you have to configure a variable in Nightly).

~~Firefox supports it if you enable it in the settings. You don't need nightly~~ Doesn't work any longer

[–] MissingInteger@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, you need nightly or an extension.
Enabling image.jxl.enabled in builds other than nightly won't do anything.

Is that a recent change? I remember having it working on Firefox, but I don't think I've ever had nightly installed.

According to caniuse it seems to have been only ever available in nightly.
For anyone interested here is a test site for jpeg xl (and other image formats).

I guess my memory is playing tricks on me then, my bad. Must have been using nightly at some point then
