Please, do not disregard JPEG XL!
If you could implement it, it would be awesome!

 I completely understand! It is a long, complex and itchy process indeed, but I cannot wait since JPEG XL is SO AWESOME! Speaking of roadmap, did you ever consider making a public one, so that sponsors, admins and users can actively follow Pixelfed’s development process? |
@tommi JPEG-XL is on our roadmap don't worry!
In order to support HEIC, webp, AVIF, JPEG-XL and other new formats we need to carefully refactor the MediaPipeline and APIs.
Without introducing bugs and/or breaking support for other formats.
And we need to generate a fallback copy in a widely supported format like jpeg/png for older clients.
In a way that doesn't break the web UI, APIs (mobile apps) or federation (other projects).
It's a bit more complicated than adding a mime type to config
