    IrfanView is the faster image viewer but as an image browser lacks too many features that XNView has.

    Irfanview is an image viewer while xnview is a media browser and cataloguer. (Almost) totally unrelated.

    IrfanView is focused on opening and editing pictures individually, rather than organising many images

    Workflow is trash, and when saving quality is much worse. Also not the formats covered.
