As much as I love to hate on apple, any of this format shit is 100% Windows bullshit. It’s not just pictures, with shit like webm, or some random video codecs it’ll ask you to FUCKING BUY! But even shit like Windows only supporting some like 3 file formats from the god knows how many out there. Ever since I switched to Linux (heck, even fucking MacOS would do better) all this stopped being an issue. Fuck windows for literally only supporting their special selection of formats. There’s a good reason why the first step of many people installing windows is also Installing VLC or MUCH superior image viewers. Because Microsoft chooses to not support most things out there!

How many distros support h264/265 out of the box? They probably don’t support most HEIC images either since they’re HEVC on the inside
Exactly. Android’s default image format is HEIC as well. Jpeg is outdated and needs to die already.
All my default photos are jpg. What’s wrong with that?
JPG is not bad, but it uses more storage space for the same quality compared to HEIC/HEIF
Windows now supports other formats than BMP. It’s already a huge progress.
They started to support svg (which is 23 years old by now) in Office a month or so ago. What a time to be alive!
We even got GIF! Now that it’s starting to show its age.
PCX 😒
