Am I having a stroke, or is this headline horrendously written?

Horrible headline.

Browser maker love-in

Chromium (used by most browsers)

snubs

doesn't support

Google-shunned JPEG XL

JPEG XL (because Google doesn't like it)

It was chrome and Firefox both who were against the format, both saying too expensive to implement for too small a benefit
