Image formats like JPEG 2000, JPEG XR, and WebP often provide better compression than PNG or JPEG

Passing comment: as part of the research we did for images.guide, it turned out that a lot of users could get some pretty hefty wins from adopted MozJPEG. This isn't technically a next-gen format, but a JPEG optimizer. Unsure if you'd want to cater for those types of recommendations.

I'm wondering if there's a better name than "next-gen". The closest i'm getting is "2010-era". But that doesnt' seem worth it.

"Superior formats" seems a little judgy. Can we just say "next-gen formats" or "performant formats"

'next-gen' was nixed, but performant SGTM

Shouldn't we update this documentation to explain the different formats?

Cool cool, I also just got a brain dump from him on how I can update stuff and seems straightforward when we have changes to docs like this that aren't new material :)

Do you want to mention something here about different browser support for each, or nah?
