Support for modern image formats like JPG XL in the Photos app
I’m currently in the process of archiving my photos from Lightroom for longterm storage and wanted to use one of the newer, more futureoriented image formats. After some testing, I eventually decided on JPG XL.
However, I noticed that JPG XL apparently isn’t supported by the Photos app, which I find quite unfortunate. For example, the RAW files from my cameras are displayed without any issues.
I would therefore really appreciate it if JPG XL support could be added as well. If formats like HEIF or AVIF are also not currently supported, it would certainly make sense to include those too.
I’d also find support for OpenEXR interesting. While it’s more of a niche topic and probably only needed by a small number of users, it would still be a great addition.
