In my personal tests of jxl, it manages filesizes 1/9th that of png while remaining visually identical (unless looking VERY closely). It's a massive improvement over jpeg and honestly a replacement for png in most cases.

Like I'm saying 8MB for a 8000x6000 file at max quality (estimating from memory)
