- zarlss43 3y agoChromium is an open-source browser, not Chrome.
- shadowgovt 3y agoSo implement it in chromium, and the conversation can move to "why is Chrome not adopting this feature that is already compatible with the codebase?"
- lonjil 3y agoChrome and Chromium are the same dev team. Open source doesn't mean that they'll accept any pull request. It was implemented in Chromium, as an experimental feature, and then removed.

- spider-mario 3y agoLike this? https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium-libjxl/tree/67097321232ff849b8877c6329688f06fad69d35 https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium-libjxl/tree/6709732123...
- shadowgovt 3y agoExcellent. This is a good approach. The most hilarious way to deal with Google's lack of leadership would be to build out a browser that rivals their offering on top of their own core.
- tgv 3y agoIt is already in the code base. They're removing it.

- sergiotapia 3y agoJust like Rust is open source ;)
- tredre3 3y agoIt's already been implemented. Chrome used to support JPEG XL if you enabled the hidden flag. The author of that code is still keeping it up to date in case Chrome wants to merge it back. That mythical someone you speak of has done all the correct things already. This is squarely Google not wanting that feature.
