Ive mainly been outputting them to high fidelity jpegs and then stuffing them into a cbz for portability. Works well went im reading on my ipad. As for the others i had them sorted out about a week or two after i decompiled the original binaries.
I’ve definitely kicked myself a few times for not posting about them sooner, but the fear of pissing off CondeNast tempered my willingness to show off
I don't think CondeNast cares.
Do any of the cbz readers handle jpeg2000? It makes a big difference in filesize without any quality degradation. Like 40% smaller, maybe more in some cases. You should tinker with that if you have the time.
Okular handles cbz that contain jxl with no issue. (IIUC both archive format and image format support is provided via a pluggable extension system but I don't recall the details because my setup has "just worked" for a very long time now.)
Also FYI you can use mupdf to read cbz archives although I don't personally recommend it for that usecase.
