Allow uploading AVIF files to Wikimedia sites Open

Edit wish Discuss this wish

Description

The AVIF image format is supported by all modern web browsers now. It generally has better compression than JPEG and WebP. With this format, photographers can reduce photo size, or add photos with greater than 8-bit color. I hope Wikimedia sites can support uploading AVIF files.
