by deal_apart_taken, 6 months agoWorks well. Doesn't seem to support animations as you can see illustrated from this test page -- https://jpegxl.info/test-page/

- Rated 1 out of 5by kwinz, a month agoNot marked as compatible with Firefox Android. And more importantly the source code repository has been deleted or marked private. Very suspicious!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18661057, 2 months agoBoth the source code repository (i.e. "extension source" link) and the developer's GitHub profile have disappeared.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Beth, 4 months agoPartially restores what the cowardly Mozilla Foundation removed: support for the superior, industry-approved, backwards-compatible, open standard JPEG-XL.
(So much for driving standards compliance and being a meaningful alternative to monopolies, huh? Thanks, Mozilla.)
Unfortunately, animation is apparently not supported by this add-on at this time (September 2024) -- as tested on the jpeg xl test page. - Rated 4 out of 5by Artem S. Tashkinov, 4 months agoSadly it requires JS to be enabled for the webpage that embeds JXL images, i.e. when you're using NoScript you will not see JXL images, unless you've enabled JS execution for the page.
Secondly, it doesn't seem to support animated JXL.
Thirdly, Firefox has removed native JXL support (it can no longer be enabled via about:support). Shame on you Mozilla. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ara, 5 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Kupitman, 6 months agoDoesn't work in LibreWolf(from box, but i remember before is work), firefox all work.
But this is a crutch, the original jpegxl is converted to png and you don't get the benefit of its specification + have worse perfomance with reconverting - Rated 4 out of 5by Tom Vanon, 10 months agoDoes not actually show original JXL, but seems to convert it to PNG (lossless). Complications may occur, such as with complex or unsupported metadata. But this is probably still a decent improvement (still testing), and about as good as it gets until Mozilla properly implements support for JPEG XL.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Termy, 2 years agoAfter Googles braindead move and Mozillas braindead following of it, it's really great that this exists! :)
- Rated 3 out of 5by sicherlich, 2 years agoDoes not work with JavaScript turned off.
The original jxl files are not displayed, but converted to png. - Rated 5 out of 5by Regain4732, 2 years agoGreat addon. JXL needs native Firefox support but until then this is a good solution!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13442672, 2 years agoDoing what Firefox can't because they are too scared of being different from Chrome.

- Rated 4 out of 5by JezuzX, 2 years agoDoes what it says. Can't wait till JPEG XL reaches its peak. Being a image format first it will outlive video based image formats like AVIF.
