Add AVIF image format

AVIF is a new image format derived from the keyframes of AV1 video. It's a royalty-free format, and it's already supported in Chrome 85 on desktop.

It's ridiculously light compared to JPEG, and it would bring massive performance improvement to our websites.

Here's a detailed comparison with different image formats like JPEG, PNG, WebP, etc:

    Please support AVIF. It's far superior and the future of image compression... so let's make the future the present.

    Hello, have you ever heard of the ASF format? It's a video format, so when I downloaded a video from the site, it was in ASF. Thankfully I have already found an ASF converter to work with such videos. By the way, I want to say that their size is much smaller than the same mp4, it's interesting....

    It’s 2024, and this has only 103 votes 💀 I’m sure it’s not a big deal to unlock an additional file format to allow us to get a better site performance. Many major websites already use AVIF, i.e. Unsplash.

    Why Webflow won't support AVIF after 3 years?

    This seems obvious.

    I converted my JPG files to WebP. I found the quality of WebP is so bad, even if you put %100 quality. I regret that I converted all my assets to WebP and I want to turn them to JPG for now.

    But AVIF has a better quality and result.

    If you are an artist and want to show your portfolio don't convert your files to WebP for any reason.

    the quality of images in AVIF is spectacular at half the size of JPEG. Safari will be supporting it in v13 in fall 2022. Webflow must consider supporting this open source format that will become the standard

    You can use AVIF Image Format finally with Stacket here: https://stacket.app/ for both images and background images aswell with a fallback aswell.

    Would it be possible to have an official statement from Webflow according this? I understand not supporting webp, but as avif is the new standard it should be integrated as soon as possible.

    Otherwise webflow wont be a valid alternative for landing pages o.s. anymore.
