    I'm not familiar, but it does look useful. Seems to combine the best of both png and jpg, with the power of jpg's compression with the option of lossless compression + support for transparency or whatever else you might want to have a channel for

      I remember it being suggested that AI image generators could be used as an extremely lossy image format, since you can generally get the same generator to output the same image given the same weights, seed, settings and prompt

        I just converted all the images on my website to webp for faster load time.
        Very happy with it.

        I was farting around with renpy and grabbed some free assets since I wasn't making anything important, and I noticed that each image was a full megabyte, so I converted them to webp and reduced the entire project from 20mb down to just a few megs (I don't remember specifically but I remember it was a significant reduction)

          Just use a proper Operating System and silly problems like that will go away.

            It's fucking awesome. I can losslessly convert a .jpg to a .jxl and back to a .jpg. The only problem is support in browsers and other software. .webp and .avif are fine for the most part but they seem to get all of the attention and support when .jxl is better in most ways and is a future proofed format.

              The operating system support for JPEG XL is really there! By now even Windows supports it natively. Not only previews in the file manager, but also in the media viewer.

              Yeah, I copied a .jxl over to my Windows 11 VM out of curiosity and was surprised to see it opened just fine.

                Same Plasma here. I'm using SHADERS as my background. Currently the Balatro menu shader.

                  It's literally just GLSL shader code. Procedurally generated animated background.

                      This is MS we're talking about. Preview and Viewer are probably made by two different teams in different countries, sharing no code, and prohibited from communicating with each other, even if they know about the other's existence.

                      And famously they fired all QAs years ago so there's nobody to test before releasing.

                      It all makes sense now.

                      There's no QA to bonk people on the head.

                      Who the fuck's idea was Outlook (New)? Like half the features don't exist. And some of the actually useful new features simply don't work (looking at you," pop-out" reading pane view option. Where's my popped out reading pane Microsoft??? Did ya forget to test it? Turns out, yes)
