Wasn't there a licensing issue with jpeg xl for using Microsoft's some sort of algo?
Makes sense why AV1F isn't supported in Windows. Likely a corrupt Microsoft backroom deal with proprietary algorithms makers.
there's AVIF and AV1 extensions by Microsoft itself on their store afaik…
Oh cool I didn't even know that. Thanks for the heads up. Wonder why the codec isn't installed by default though
No, there aren't any licensing issues with JPEG-XL.
Then it's absolutely soul-crushing to see Google abuse it's market dominance like that...
