Thanks to wasm, you don’t have to bow to Google’s whim and can choose to include jpeg xl support on your websites if you want: github.com/niutech/jxl.js

Do you know if it uses the native decoder if available (so, in Safari I guess)? Doesn’t say in the readme.

  I believe so. This line in the source code means it’ll only attempt the decoding if an img element for a jxl fails to load.

I read “wasm” as per “wasp” – white, Anglo-Saxon – and then my brain create “men” because Protestant didn’t make sense. And I continued to read the sentence until context didn’t make sense.

But it still kind of does.

(Yes, I know web assembly is a thing. Just making conversation.)

  Wasps are also a type of insect.
