It would be nice if the author would add mozjpeg[1] to the comparison. At certain sizes, it can produce smaller sizes than WebP, and because it is still a jpeg, it has a much better compatibility story, which the author alluded to.

That is you might look at one image and think it looks fine (which is subjective, depends on what you want to use the image for…) with a quality of 60%, but then you compress a million images at that rate, delete the originals, then... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Hello HN, A few days back we launched SupaRes which is an image restoration/enhancement platform. What I think is unique about that product is that it offers not only general single-image super-resolution but also a few other enhancements such as automatic white-balance, denoising, tone improvement, or low-light boost.
