While being a big supporter of JPEG-XL on HN, I just want to note AV2 is coming out soon, which should further improve the image compression. ( Edit: Also worth pointing out current JPEG-XL encoder is no where near its maximum potential in terms of quality / compression ratio )

But JPEG-XL is being quite widely used now, from PDF, medical images, camera lossless, as well as being evaluated in different stage of cinema / artist workflow production. Hopefully the rust decoder will be ready soon.

And from the wording, it seems to imply Google Chrome will officially support anything from AOM.
