Exactly, it seems to be common for new people to think hevc is just like avc but better. It is a format that is just a pain to work with, and is barely supported as compared to h264.
Even streaming services are sick of that format and rather use h264 or AV1.
Honestly I just don’t like how HEVC compression ends up looking. It looks like everything has had noise added and then smoothed over, and I can always see it. AV1 or AVC are also my personal pics. AV1 for filesize and AVC for compatibility.
HEVC is proprietary.
AV1 is what we need. And a lot of newer hardware finally supports it.

AV1 is for video though? JPEG-XL is patent-free, better performant than most or all alternatives, and made for images.
