How is it 95% smaller? FLIF is a lossless compression, and AV1 in lossless mode can't do magic. It can't do 95% better. https://wyohknott.github.io/image-forma

presumably it's 95% smaller because it's not limited to lossless mode?

  FLIF is also not limited to lossless mode, http://flif.info/lossy.html http://flif.info/lossy.html

    And FLIF's lossy mode is as good as AV1's?

      That part I don't know. I haven't seen a comparison between them, but it's compared well at least against BPG, or whatever the h264 based format was. I don't think i've seen a comparison against h265, let along AV1. It'd be interesting to see. Even if they're about as good, I like FLIF's setup better since it enables progressive decoding which could be a big step up for slower connections.
