About JPEG XL
JPEG XL is an image format standardised as ISO/IEC 18181 in 2022. It offers lossy and lossless compression, transparency and HDR, and it can repack existing JPEG files losslessly to about 20 percent smaller.

About PNG
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless image format created in 1996 as a free replacement for GIF. It supports full colour and an alpha channel for transparency.
Screenshots, logos, icons, diagrams and any image with text or sharp edges.
For photos a PNG is several times larger than a JPEG, and plain PNG has no animation (that is APNG).
Why convert an image to PNG? When sharp lines, text and transparency matter more than file size: screenshots and logos stay pixel-perfect.
