A lot of things don't support it yet, but it's technically a better compression format
Better than JPEGxl?
Nope. JPEG XL is more modern and delivers lower file sizes without fucking up image quality as much. Downside is that, right now, JPEG XL is actually supported by even less things, because it is still so new.
But it is an industry standard rather than just Google trying to push its own thing, so I do expect it to overtake WebP in a few years.
Google dropped support for it in favour of avif, just so they can push their own shit again.
