My god, what a disastrous response.
Go to the consumer market and tell them to install an apk from an unreliable source like github (we know this website is safe, but for newbies it's almost the same as your favorite torrent page), Because the Google play version is decaffeinated, then tell it to install a thousand dependencies with a simple command, to later copy another command that must be adapted for each image (cjxl input output -e 9)....
There are people who even find it difficult to click a button, really if we want JXL to have the support, it must be given the same or more facilities than heic. See that even apple converts everything to heic without asking, completely transparent to the user who one day simply arrives and sees that he lost weight in his images.
An application that converts everything to JXL would be a good idea, from a simple button that automates everything, to an advanced mode that allows you to enable and control the amount of compression, preview and edit metadata, or even a converter from JXL to other formats would be helpful for third party apps (social networks).
I had to struggle at the time to be able to compress my files in bulk, and even then I had to modify many parameters before I could be sure to use it in bulk.
By the way, I know there are web tools that convert to JXL, but I really don't like that we have to rely on the cloud to do such a poor and monotonous task like transcoding images. Not to mention that they are not as useful as cli (brotli effort). Oh right, also the browser should support JXL via flags, Something that sounds like black magic to my grandmother who just wants to see her images without worrying that some algorithm puts 10kg of noise in each image.

This, please. It can be done via Termux, very awkwardly, but
cjxl's defaults often don't make any sense. (E.g., why does PNG→JxL default to encoding mathematically-perfect w/o @ least running a heuristic whether that it's under x colors, so would be served best in Modular mode? 🤷🏾♂️)
