Feels a little like a déjà vu from an older browser by a big company that had a monopoly.. IMO, the sad truth is that what will happen is that JXL simply won't be used because it's not worth it to lose customers in exchange for a few kilobytes saved. Google has won, it has a monopoly on search, advertisement and the browser and decides de facto of all standards.


Chrome did not settle things with its decision to not use JXL at this time.

(WASM) Polyfill and we're done.

Any resemblance with previous events would be totally unintentional, of course :-)
