Browser makers Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Mozilla have announced Interop 2024, a project to promote web browser interoperability.
JPEG XL, a potential replacement for JPEG and PNG image formats, was not included in Interop 2024.
The rejection of JPEG XL has been blamed on Google, with the Google Chrome team deciding not to support the image compression technology.

If Google says chromium won't support a feature it won't be used. The majority of browsers are Chromium under the hood.

A third party adaptation of Chromium could add support for other formats, the ones we know about right now just don’t bother.
