    > usually the filename and an image preview are the only pieces of information you get about an image no matter where you are

    that's obviously false, it entirely depends on "where you are"

    > ignorant of the literal entire world not doing this

    The entire world is ignorant enough to not know that png is lossless

    Also, don't hide behind the entire world, this conversation is about you "i don't look at dialogs before i download, save, or pick a file from a directory listing"

    > fail to understand how windows explorer is not relevant when you can't just set the image viewer for save/open dialogs on windows, that's just not a thing that's possible to do

    (by the way, it'd be entierly possible to add metadata even in Windows Explorer when this https://github.com/saschanaz/jxl-winthumb/issues/26 is added)

    but you're not forced to just the save/open dialogs of the default file manager. You can even use a more convenient workflow of navigating in your file manager and making the open dialog switch there, and within your file manager you would have more info vs WinExplorer

  • Another great target for JXL support: PowerToys (opensource, >90k stars on GitHub) has a module for adding explorer.exe thumbnail/preview support to file formats

    Here's an issue on their GitHub. It references jxl-winthumb which uses WIC (meaning explorer.exe, the default Windows Photo Viewer, and any other app using it can then decode and display JXL). It's written in Rust (no Rust code in PowerToys yet, mostly C++ and C#) but at the very least it serves as a good reference for implementing in C++.

    jxl-winthumb provides WIC capabilities. It could do with some increased google-ability though

    Currently, JPEG XL can be enabled in Chromium, Firefox, and Opera browsers, but has no other browser support. JPEG XL is supposed to remain royalty free. You can grab the encoder and decoder off Github and chat with other JPEG XL enthusiasts on Reddit and Discord. You can install JPEG XL utilities on Mac using homebrew and on Windows. Tools like GIMP and ImageMagick are beginning to support it.

    What is JPEGXL The image coding system JPEG XL (ISO / IEC 18181) is particularly suitable for responsive conditions on the Internet, so that content from a variety of contraceptives can be viewed with pleasure. In addition, it reinforces some of the strategies that have worked by changing the old JPEG program. The JPEG XL workflow is tension-free and loss-free and a good program for powerless network applications. It is expected to perform better than current power lines and will largely replace it from now on. JPEG XL provides transmission with the most important features: st High risk of poor image compression. ✓ Best image compression without data loss. dis Gradual separation enc JPEG encryption without loss. for is designed for intuitive and tidy graphics.

Windows JXL Support There are several ways to enable JPEG XL Assist in Windows. Unfortunately, Windows does not yet offer any neighborhood help. You can download modules created by monitors or use an external image monitor. Windows thumbnail update: now supports WIC decoding! JXL logs can be viewed using Windows Photo Viewer or other monitors with WIC experience. With the Windows File Explorer JXL-Winthumb module you can display thumbnails of JPEG XL documents (* .jxl).

JPEG XL WIC Provides the Windows Imaging Components (WIC) implementation for a JPEG XL image layout.
