Hows .jxl support these days?

I heard about this recently and decided to look into it. Seems neat. When I convert my existing .jpeg images to .jxl, they look identical, but take up only ~60% the space. Windows file explorer and paint dont support it however, but ImageGlass does. Considering converting all my images to .jxl to save on storage space (esp. cloud storage). Thoughts?

Chrome decided not to support it because they want to push AVIF instead. Firefox followed suit. Then Apple actually decided to support JXL. It has a decent amount of support in desktop software. So it’s basically fine for personal use, but don’t expect to use it on the web unless Google changes their tune.

Screw chrome tbh. You can always embed github.com/niutech/jxl.js on the page as a fallback decoder for browsers that don’t support it (yet).

JPEG XL is awesome. I got 1/8 of the size converting (very small, like 800kB) PNGs to lossless JXL.

GIMP can open them I think, but can’t save them. ImageMagick supports it obviously and so does KDE’s image library so I get previews there and whatnot.

It really depends on what you want to use them with imo, if you view them in a specific program and that supports it, go for it.

It’s in Firefox but disabled by default.

It’s under the about:config settings in Firefox. Search for image.jxl.enabled and set it to true.

Only in nightly unfortunately.

It’s only enabled by default in nightlies. It’s in Firefox stable, just not enabled by default.

Source: I am not using nightlies. I have it enabled in my browser. It’s been there for over a year at least.

Strangely, I enabled it a year ago and jpegxl.info is still displaying that my navigator does not support jpegxl
