Pretty much sums it up. JPEGXL could've been the standard by now if Google would stop kneecapping it in favor of its own tech, now we're stuck in an awkward position where neither of them are getting as much traction because nobody can decide on which to focus on.

Also, while Safari does support AVIF, there are some features it doesn't support like moving images, so we have to wait on that too... AVIF isn't bad, but it doesn't matter if it takes another 5+ years to get global support for a new image format...
