    Reposting this since the original got deleted (except on the instances where it was federated in time) when my beehaw account was erased alongside a week worth of data a few months ago.
    Came across the image and thought "why not post again?", I don't know if I still stand by the meme, but frankly I don't care...

    I just want to schizopost

    I have mixed feeling here.

    On one hand avif is a libre format.

    On the other hand:

    1. Avif has MAJOR limitations for a long term use (i.e. 65.538x 65.538 max resolution among other things)
    2. JpegXL has REVERSIBLE in place conversion to and from jpeg. You can convert jpegs into jpegXLs and gain the size benefits. You can undo the change and convert jpegXLs back into original jpegs all losslessly.
    3. JpegXL has progressive loading which supports people on slower internet speeds. AVIF does not.

    Like I want to like avif but it’s hard for it to compete here I think. It’s like cheering for Theora over x265 just because it’s libre. Ideologically yes it makes sense to do so but good god is x265 better than Theora. (Not saying Theora is a representative open video codec though) Just that JpegXL is that much better.

    My internet is so bad that on some tests I've gotten ~1mb/s. It averages about 5mb/s, so progressive loading is important for me.

    Look at this guy flexing his internet speed. I have 4G because despite fiber being less than 300m away they won't bring it. Am near a freaking Olympic stadium so you my think I'd have the best internet but nope, it gets as slow as 32kb/s and even lower. I had times where images gradually load like it's the 90s again and even sites telling me am not connected/going offline mode randomly. I think i need to also mention websites never loading or taking literal minutes to do so.

    You wear the crown of the shitty internet king

    [–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    As the king, i declare that all images must be jpegxl and videos must be x265 with variable resolutions available. Seriously, why some images are so big ? Not compressing them is the most wasteful thing ever.

    Completely forgot AV1. Decree changed : it's AV1 now.

    With those speeds I'm surprised you haven't gone back to QuickTime and RealPlayer.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    QuickTime ? you mean going back to old format like .3gp or .mov ? I said i have a slow internet not that I am some kind of psychopath.

    I'd also like to add that all lossy audio must be Opus (or codec 2)

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    I'd use opus for live audio and low bitrate content e.g. audiobooks. For music ogg vorbis. But probably opus can do that as well and even better.

    I feel your pain, I'm in the same boat regarding fiber, it's so unfair. Luckily I was able to move to a home 5G plan and I've been having a blast with the speeds I get sometimes (granted they are still laughable in comparison to the big boys with 1Gbps fiber in big cities), I think you'll have better luck seeing that kind of thing becoming available to you before any kind of fiber

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

    Not in my country. 1Gbps isn't a thing here. Heck, we only recently went from* 1mb to 2mb to 4mb to 10mb in like the past 6 years or so. Admittedly, it's the cheapest offer but that's what most people are able to afford anyway.

    *the real download speed is that divided by 8 so it's 1mb/8 --> 128kb/s and so on.
