JPEG XL exceeds 20% of served images

[ksec]

I hope Apple could further increase the use of JPEG XL inside iOS, if they could recompress all the JPEG inside my Photo Album it would instantly saves a lot of space.

For those who dont know JPEG XL can losslessly compress JPEG with 10-20% reduction in size depending on images.

The conspiracy theorist in me says thats a low priority due to perverse incentives (namely selling more storage at a huge markup).

Another rationale is that the Apple ecosystems tends to not use JPEG by default anyway, right? It uses HEIC or something.
