Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

FSF Slams Google over Dropping JPEG-XL in Chrome
The article is about avif not webp. Note the editors for the AOM avif specification don't even include Google https://aomediacodec.github.io/av1-avif/

Whistleblowers Take Note: Don’t Trust Cropping Tools
This reminds me of something similar from the guy who implemented AVIF in Firefox. He gives a talk about the implementation [1] where he talks about the CLAP privacy problem. Basically the spec adds a field that allows for cropping of the image, but the binary file would still contain the original. This would lead users to believe some image data was deleted when it really wasn't. I always thought he spent a lot of time and effort on this for little gain, but now I'm starting to think it was worth his effort.

AVIF images encoded with yuv422 appear black on iOS 16 / MacOS Ventura
So actually the same images I linked above are in the AOMediaCodec repo as well, under Link-U: https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/av1-avif/tree/master/testFiles/Link-U And I see the same issue with the yuv422 images there as well. I'm guessing Apple's AVIF implementation must be incomplete?

What is AVIF?
Created by Alliance for Open Media and worked on by Netflix, Microsoft, and Google developers, AVIF is open source - you can even weigh in on image processing and spec issues.
- We need to rethink AVIF lossless mode.

How can HDR AVIF stills be created?
I've been trying to find a way edit 14bit RAW files (.ARW) to an HDR capable format (HEIF/AVIF). In the process I found out there's an official AVIF encoder (1) by AOM that seems like it should be capable of creating HDR PQ stills.

Question: Multiscale AVIF performance?
AVIF can do something that resembles hierarchical JPEG and that could be useful for progressive decoding: you can have multiple layers/scales, where e.g. first a 1:4 image is encoded, then residuals to get to 1:2, then residuals to get to 1:1. Examples of this were recently added to the AVIF spec: https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/av1-avif/pull/134

JPEG XL: How It Started, How It’s Going
JPEG XL can losslessy transcode JPEG into a smaller format. JPEG2000 (or WebP or anything but Lepton[0]) didn't offer that. Besides, we have gif and png for approximately the same space. gif still isn't gone. Displacement isn't necessary for a new format to become useful.

Questions about establishing a photography backup/storage system
It may not be directly related to your question, but Dropbox has developed a great open source software called Lepton. It is able to compress JPEGs losslessly and saves on average about 22% of storage space. The files are not readable after compression without decompression, but since your focus seems to be on archiving anyway, it might be handy. And for larger collections of high-resolution images, it can actually save a decent amount of storage space.

AVIF support enabled by default in Firefox 86
Just wondering, is there a "lossless" conversion from PNG/JPEG/etc to AVIF? Kinda like Lepton[1] but just re-compressing without further loss of details.
