• Google's decision to deprecate JPEG-XL emphasizes the need for browser choice and free formats

  There are already forks offering JPEG-XL support. Thorium (warning: sound is auto-played on page open, why is this a thing) is perhaps the most prominent example for Chromium. In Firefox rebuilds there's Waterfox Current and LibreWolf, and for the independently developed there's the browsers that build on top of the Unified XUL Platform (a hard fork of Mozilla) which are Pale Moon and Basilisk.

• Google's decision to deprecate JPEG-XL emphasizes the need for browser choice and free formats

  Don't use Chrome. Try something, anything, else. The Thorium browser is fantastic, fast, and does basically everything Chrome does. If you're a Firefox person, consider trying Mercury, Waterfox, Pale Moon, or Basilisk. There is a whole world of rich browser forks that are specialized & often work better than their mainstream alternatives. Here, you can see they listened to us when large organizations didn't.
