  1. "Switcheroo" by @adhami is a fantastic batch image conversion utility for #GNOME, and it is one of the few ones that actually uses #MozJPEG for encoding #JPEG images. I use it to optimize my photographic images for the web (until #JXL takes over the web someday) emails, or other lightweight image purposes.

    Much faster than the Yoga image optimizer (which uses an excruciatingly slow JPEG encoder at the moment) or than encoding images only one at a time with Squoosh!

  2. #AVIF is useless in lossless (which #PNG and #WebP excel at) and pointless in lossy (which #JPEG beats in preserving sharpness and quality, as well as #JPEGXL which beats both JPEG and AVIF on pretty much all the quality levels that matter in real-world usage).

    AVIF only "won" because of strong-arming and deception by
    #Google's AVIF and #Chrome teams, not through technical merits that JPEG XL through Google's #PIK team and #Cloudinary championed. I do not accept this bastardization of new #web #standards being written, and #photographers should resist the same as they did against lossy WebP in favor of #mozjpeg in the past.

    I believe that
    #PaleMoon will not have any plans to support AVIF in the long future especially when it already has JPEG XL support in. ​:seija_coffee:​
