    Absolutely agree, for my photo portfolio website AVIF allows me to serve higher quality photos faster to potential clients.

    I’ll just drop my AVIF local support for Wordpress plugin here: https://github.com/ddegner/avif-local-support

    Don't you mean JPEG XL?

      Jpeg-XL's key win was only lossless translation of existing jpeg to a modern format. Mostly for archives where you don't want a lossy translation.

      In terms of picture quality for given size, AVIF has it solidly beat.
