What is the big gain over AVIF?
It’s great at lossless? but I never use lossless for web images
Replying to @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone
But for specific cases like comics and stronger compression at about 60% quality it’s currently better. I’ve heard jpegXL encoders still have some ways to improve though. For stronger compression avif can use “ssimulacra2” which is a great metric to avoid compression artifacts for encoders. So ideally jpegXL would support both butteraugly (high quality) and simulacra2 for low quality / high compression.
