Since it is kinda new, in comparison, there is room for improvements and better use of hardware accelerating regarding decoding: avifstudio.com/blogs/faq/evalu

Still, the smaller size makes download quicker and, of course, free up bandwidth on internet. So is compensating.

However, the encoding speed seems to already be there: avifstudio.com/blogs/faq/avif-

Thanks for making me look up more about #AVIF. It fits very well - as in open - with things I'm working on 🥰

libaom, the reference AV1 encoder, has a new release: aomedia.googlesource.com/aom/+

I’m super happy to have been featured in the release credits, and even happier that our image quality improvements designed for AVIF have come to libaom from SVT-AV1-PSY. For those looking to deliver the best quality per bit for images on the Web, hopefully the new `--tune iq` will help you out.

One reason I use a pixelfed instance is so that I do not overwhelm my main instance's storage.

But lately I've taken to just hyper-compressing my images with WebP (and reducing them down to a maximum of 2048 pixels on either axis) instead of posting to PixelFed. ImagePipe is a great FOSS app for automating this.

For the record, I'd much rather use #AVIF over #WebP, but #GoToSocial doesn't support it yet.

> In this super thorough study I test one single HD image and come to vast sweeping conclusions about JPEG XL and AVIF. But that's still one image comparison more than most people do! :)

I love the idea of JPEG XL “creating a sandwich of superiority around the middling AVIF”! 😍

@jbowen For online viewing? Absolutely. Send me the smallest identical version of what you’ve got. #JPEGXL and #AVIF are fine, too (and even #HEIC for the Apple crowd; Safari will ask for it if it exists).

For saving, no. Give me a JPEG with all your metadata, at least until desktop OSes start treating these newer formats equally.

And here is a good study comparing both lossy and lossless JPEG XL, AVIF, WEBP and JPEG.

Summary: in lossless compression, JPEG XL is much better than the others in all aspects. In lossy compression, AVIF wins in the image size department (not encode speed though) for medium to low quality images. JPEG XL wins in all dimensions in the medium to high quality scenario.
Additionally, nobody beats JPEG XL in terms of decoding speed.
