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.

JPEG XL and the Pareto Front
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/format_overvi... is a pretty detailed but good overview. The highlights are variable size DCT (up to 128x128), ANS entropy prediction, and chroma from luminance prediction. https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/encode_effort... also gives a good breakdown of features by effort level.

Compressing Text into Images
For JPEG XL, refer to its format overview [1]. In short its lossless mode uses a combination of multiple techniques: the rANS coding with an alias table, LZ77, reversible color transforms, a general vector quantization that subsumes palettes, a modified Haar transform and a learnable meta-adaptive decision tree for context modelling.
One good thing about JPEG XL is that its lossy mode also largely uses the same tool, with a major addition of specialized quantization and context modelling for low- and high-frequenty components.

Stripping Metadata
The cjxl source is here. If you spot any reason why -x strip=exif may not work, tell me.

Www Which WASM Works
The problem is that the instructions for actually running the WASM file are not that clear... the docs the author mentions shows how to compile to WASM, which is easy enough, but then here's the instructions to make that actually work in the browser:
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/tools/wasm_demo/R...
Yeah, you need some mysterious Python script, a JS service worker at runtime, choose whether you want the WASM or WASM_SIMD target, use a browser that supports Threads and SIMD if you chose that, make sure to serve everything with the appropriate custom HTTP headers... just reading that, I can see that to get this stuff working on non-browser WASM targets would likely require expertise in WASM, which is the point of the OP. WASM's UX is just not there yet.

First automatic JPEG-XL cloud service
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl#usage
> Specifically for JPEG files, the default cjxl behavior is to apply lossless recompression and the default djxl behavior is to reconstruct the original JPEG file (when the extension of the output file is .jpg).
-
Why "sudo make install"?
I mean compiling a bleeding edge kicad, inkscape or jpeg-xl is easy. But will probably trash your system if you already have an older version installed.

XYB JPEG: Perceptual Color Encoding Tested
But you look at your image viewer that could have the lossless indicator? (and there is an issue open to add this indicator to the jxl files)

Heyo Everyone! - is there a win or mac software to batch convert imgs to avif?
You might want to use libjxl directly, e.g. for visually lossless images: cjxl --effort 9 --brotli_effort 11 --distance 1.0 --num_threads (nproc) --lossless_jpeg 0 input.png output.jxl on linux (if you're on windows/mac, just replace the (nproc) with the number of cpu threads you have, e.g. --num_threads 16).

"How i learned about Firefox MPRIS" - or - "[PSA/FYI] Add years to your life by avoiding this critical 'WTF?!?' moment."
about this time, i am a little more than intrigued and a bit confused. i use my image viewing program qimgv (github) by typing qimvg 87956_60.png and was shown a photograph of a man seemingly turning his head to look at me.

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!
qimgv - Image viewer. Fast, easy to use. Optional video support. Very powerful, qt app, best for me.
-
Lightweight photo viewer with frameless feature
I use qimgv, It's mostly frameless (It only has a window bar), supports going left and right through images, even sorted by date and even on a directory with 80k+ files in it. It also has some very useful features in the right-click menu and also has a folder view and is highly customizable.
- A simple and smart image viewer
- Looking for a fullscreen image viewer with vertical scrolling

Most hardcore data compression method / offline software?
I don't know exactly what you mean by "nothing", but JPEG XL is already supported for almost all image viewers on Linux installing the libjxl plugin system wide, and on Windows good image viewers like XnView, IrfanView e my personal favorite qimgv, and all most used browsers already supports jpeg xl, however is not enable by default and you need to enable it in the hide settings, but I agree that you probably will not want to use jxl if you are sharing images to other people all the time on different platforms and can't bother to decode before doing, or are using it on other devices that don't use a desktop OS, that is way I only recommend it to people that like "bleeding edge" stuff, my first recommendation is still use something like pingo if the original format is a must.

Simple image viewer with no inconveniences
My personal favorite is qimgv. It even supports videos with an additional download, which is awesome for me.

The median AVIF and WebP images are 1.5x more efficient than JPEGs, 3x more than PNGs, and 5x more than GIFs. Why aren't they more popular?
qimgv can also save AVIF
-
7zip gang where u at?
7zip, Rufus, BleachBit, Bulk Crap Uninstaller, SpeedCrunch, ShareX, Keypirinha, Everything, OBS, qimgv and of course Nextcloud are all the essential free/open source software I need.
