Edit: Nevermind, Mac & Safari support both formats now. Good to hear. Original comment: Ironically, .JXL opens natively on the Mac, but can't open in any browser. It's the exact opposite of .WEBP which can't open on Mac but too many websites seem to use it. https://jpegxl.info/test-page/ https://jpegxl.info/test-page/

> can't open in any browser. Are you sure? When I click that link Firefox downloads the image file, which then opens correctly in Safari.

  Oh you're right, Safari does show it. If I go to the URL directly it downloads the file, which is why I assumed it couldn't view it. But it does show on the page https://jpegxl.info/test-page/ https://jpegxl.info/test-page/

    Safari was an early adopter of JPEG XL. In the past couple years, actually, the team at Apple responsible for Safari has been making inroads on features and spec work. Jen Simmons especially has been astounding, particularly with her engagement with the community. She was recently on the Syntax Podcast, and I thoroughly enjoyed the talk.

> It's the exact opposite of .WEBP which can't open on Mac I suppose it depends on what version of macOS you're running; on my Mac running Sonoma, WebP files open just like JPEGs, PNGs, etc. and have for the last 2 or 3 macOS versions.
