speaker_0HOST
Ich, wisst ihr, ich hab, ich hab manchmal genug davon, immer im heißen Brei rumzureden und, äh, aufpassen, niemand auf die Füße zu treten oder so was, ja.
speaker_0HOST
Ich sag's ganz einfach: JPEG XL ist besser als WebP, JPEG, PNG und GIF.

Now, so what is JPEG XL? It's an official ISO standard from the same JPEG committee that gave us the regular JPEG format back in the early 90s.

Kamran AyubHOST
Yeah.
Kamran AyubHOST
All right, next up in web platform news, Chrome, uh, has a nice little, um, engineering blog post or, you know, web dev blog post on JPEG-XL, um, which you've maybe have heard of.
Kamran AyubHOST
Um, but they are starting to support that, um, from Chrome 155 and onwards.
Kamran AyubHOST
So if you're not familiar, JPEG-XL is a next gen- next gen image format designed to meet the needs of modern web developers and photographers.
Kamran AyubHOST
It offers 30 to 50% better compression than JPEG, lossless compression, built-in HDR support, lossless JPEG transcoding, and more.
Kamran AyubHOST
In general, we recommend trying both AVIF and JPEG-XL to get the best results.
Kamran AyubHOST
We expect that, we expect that JPEG-XL is most helpful for high fide- high fidelity or lossless compression, especially photographic images or in cases in which fine grain progressive decoding is preferred.
Kamran AyubHOST
So they talk about why they are bringing it to Chrome, how they did it.
