    JXL is badly supported but it does offer lossless encoding in a more flexible and much more efficient way than png does

    Basically jxl could theoretically replace png, jpg, and also exr.

      Interestingly, I downloaded GNOME’s pride month wallpaper to see what it looked like, and the files were JXL. Never seen them in the wild before that

        Some parts of the open source world probably still desperately try to make JXL happen. This is understandable, considering its potential. Shame this wouldn’t work.

          Why are they trying to make it happen, and why it no work? Is JXL better than PNG? Maybe I need to do some research to better learn the difference
