      For most usage, probably nothing. Let’s be honest you arent looking at those pics again most of the time. Most of the ones you do, you’re looking at on your phone which has a tiny screen. Ask yourself how many times you’ve wanted to zoom in 10x on a jpeg on your computer and there’s your answer as to whether there’s anything wrong with it.

      JPG is not bad, but it uses more storage space for the same quality compared to HEIC/HEIF

      It’s a 32 year old format that makes pictures worse in order to save space. A lot changes in the tech works in 30 years. While there may be nothing inherently wrong with it, there’s far better image encoding algorithms these days that can store images in less space without reducing the quality as much.
