JXL = JPEG XL file viewer for Android recommendations? The format is not natively supported by Android yet, it seems. However, apps could still support JXL. Which ones would you recommend for viewing the photos?

Note: this question has been asked before on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/jpegxl/comments/xh72kl/jxl_file_viewer_for_android/

I'm re-asking here for a rather FOSS perspective.

I wanna use JXL locally. It's quite amazing technologically, you can losslessly compress a JPEG to 0.8 or so of the original size.

I compress my photos for long-term storage anyway, so why not do it with JXL.

Thanks for the app recommendation!
