The quality of encoders have a much bigger effect on whether or not a codec is 'good' or not. LAME, mozjpeg, and x264 are great examples.
MP3 is competitive with AAC and far more compatible, if you use LAME. Same with JPEG and WebP, or x264 and VP9. All 3 of those encoders deliver higher quality AND better encoding speed than their competitors.

Switch encoders before you switch formats.
