Ask HN: AV1-based image format?

3 points by out_of_protocol ↗ HN
Apple opted in HEVC-based image format for its internal use - 2x space savings are very useful (especially for iphone). Still, anything HEVC-based is plagued by unbearable licensing issues and can not widespread anyhow. How about some new image standard for everyone? AV1 is going to be at very least a bit better than HEVC
