Firefox Still Not Supporting JXL

I know that its not up to Artix devs, but it seems to still be the issue.

It turns out that Firefox DOES NOT support jxl. Turning ON the follwing two options:

1. browser.download.viewableInternally.typeWasRegistered.jxl
2. image.jxl.enabled

does not enable jxl support in Firefox. Its been like these for a long time (as of today - 9 months).

Tested and source is here (mozilla bug tracker):
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1805292

Supposedly it works in nightly. Maybe some code transfer to the current version in Artix?

P.S.:
Is Mozilla becoming the division of Google? [google hates jxl, they have AV1 bases avif]. They seem to copy Chrome all over the places (mainfest v3 to some extent, gui - incl. this ugly, unnoying extension button, I believe hiding the extensions from panel etc...., calling google without consent - "safe browsing" etc.). Not to spam forum with irrelevant topic, but Google it taking over the world and is starting to be the dicatator what we can and cannot do, what formats we can and cannot uses. They decided they hate jxl which is now an ISO spec, so everyone follows the hate. Not good.
