FWIW one of the reasons this has become relevant again is because the next version of Safari supports WebP. The article's discussion of AVIF is interesting but you're not going to be able to use it on the web any time soon.
I'd be curious to see a WebP vs PNG comparison, since (IIRC) it has a lossless mode too.
- chungy 6y agoLossless is pretty easy, there's no subjective qualities to compare, just file size. WebP Lossless almost always results in a smaller file than PNG. I have seen exceptions to this, but they're sufficiently rare that it's not worth worrying about.
