Your comment was deaded. I vouched for it because I don't see anything that looks obviously inflammatory/incorrect, but I noticed that a large fraction of your comment history is also dead. You might want to look into that, since most of the dead comments also looked fine to me.

FWIW, Firefox supports it already (behind the image.avif.enabled knob).

AV1 decoding has already been in Chrome and Firefox since at least a year ago. We're just waiting for hardware decoding and encoding support now, which should start appearing this year.
The next version of Chrome will also support the AV1-based AVIF image format this month:

YouTube, Netflix, and Amazon/Twitch are also likely to not support VVC (and some of them don't support h.265 either) for their streaming services.
