The lengths I had to go through to open this even on my Linux desktop. Wow.

• pictrs failed to generate the thumbnail
• The image crashes Firefox
• Chromium shows a broken image icon
• Gwenview says it can't load the metadata
• Okular says it's an unsupported image format

I had to open the darn thing in GIMP lmao

E: one install of kimageformats5 later and Gwenview/Okular can open it fine. Firefox still refuses to open it even with image.jxl.enabled set to true.

I couldn't view this with Firefox or Gnome. ImageMagick to the rescue, though:

c/programmerhumor is going to be the place where people go to try and break fediverse clients, isn't it?

Why is it .jpg and not .jxl? That's the registered extension for JPEG-XL.

I'll upvote out of principal but fuck tryin to look at that shit lol

Loads fine on Mlem on my iPhone

Interesting, it struggles with the embedded image here on Lemmy, but when going to the image directly, I can see it fine.

Edit: OS: Windows 10 Pro / Browser: Firefox with JPEG-XL support enabled

Works in Cromite on android tho.

worked fine on my android phone, using Connect.

worked fine on firefox & linux, the file shows as .webp to me.

Decided to investigate this a bit: when opened to new window, the image url has ?format=webp query argument, if I change that to ?format=jxl then it breaks as the server actually provides a .jxl file. At least I had to TRY to break it :P

Loads by default for me on Firefox Android, and I can see the embed just fine.

Works for me on Eternity for Lemmy on Android 13.
