JXL is the rightful heir to the throne and none of these treasonous corporate usurpers in the court can convince me otherwise. I'll never bow to the Webp or Avif factions. While it looks bleak, I pray the crown finds its way to the head of the true king. Long live the Jpeg bloodline!

But really, webp was pushed because it supports DRM and avif is an implementation detail turned feature afterthought just because webp adoption sucked as much as the format does. I love AV1 for video but avif isn't fit for purpose and webp is garbo. I really wish they didn't take jpegxl out behind the shed for no good reason... It has some awesome engineering.

If it gives you any hope I’m pretty sure Apple uses jpegxl for their pro mode raw compressed format. Apparently they did that change with last year’s iPhone so there’s still hope.
