Safari, which is the biggest one. But also in the OS, they committed to supporting it, but I'm not sure if they followed through yet
I mean, it's still insignificant enough that it won't matter yet, right?
But that's still good. It's on the right path. Google needs to get their head out of their ass on this one. Still no sign of it years later though.
Safari support means there's benefit to web server support. Server support means there's benefit to browser support in other browsers. Apple can kick start the network effects necessary to get this standard adopted.
Webp and heic are fine for web, but JPEG XL is special in that it actually has use for print-based and other ultra high resolution workflows, while also having the best path forward for migration from JPEG.
Very good points. 👌
