I’ve honestly given up on support of new formats. Here we are, 2026, and brand new software like Lemmy: Doesn’t support AVIF Doesn’t support JXL Doesn’t support WebP Won’t upload short, small videos either. Meanwhile: Many clients won’t play animated WebP Most clients won’t play APNG Many won’t load AVIF Basically only Apple/Safari will load JXL VP8/VP9/AV1 support in video isn’t universal What am I supposed to do? I used to send support requests over this, but I’ve given up. We are going to be stuck with SDR JPEGs and blocky GIFs forever, especially since media format literacy seems to be globally.
