See, that's why I started using JPEG-XL for long-term storage. Apart from being better in every aspect for lossless and near-lossless still images than any competitor, the generation loss even over 1000 lossy save and load cycles is negligible.

But converting from a format to another is a lossy process. It's best to just keep whatever original format you have, unless you are creating the images yourself.

I believe jpeg xl allows lossless conversion from common jpeg

That really doesn't matter when someone screenshots your JPEG-XL and posts it in a website that transcodes it to WEBP and adds a water mark.
