Interesting win for a cool format, i remember there was a rather arbitrary closing of the issue in Chromium forum despite big support for its addition, more strange yet is that Chrome team was pushing it's technical advancement forward.

Sadly, still far from adoptable today's web: https://caniuse.com/jpegxl = 17% https://caniuse.com/?search=webp = 97%

Linking that is really missing the point, that the number is going to have a massive jump in a few weeks.

    Not really.. caniuse is quite literal to its name, as a web dev that's what orients what tech i pick up to deploy today.

    Anything below ~90ish% is no go, unless i have a fallback strategy of some sort.

      Are you saying that the percent it'll be in six months isn't relevant to you, or something? You'll probably be working on most of the same projects, even. If you do care about the future then yes caniuse is missing that point.

      Once a few more versions of chrome roll through it'll jump up to almost 80%, and you can have a fallback easily.
