Comment (by NightAngel):

 Now I'm beginning to understand what's going on !

 When I click on "Browse" to upload a file **to the media library**,
 WordPress is ready to accept file types other than images :

 However, when I click on "Browse" to upload a file **in the editor**,
 WordPress wants me to select an image file.
 For some reason, Firefox 132.0b6 doesn't consider .avif to be an image
 file.
 Please note the drop-down menu at the bottom of my screenshot :

 All this to say that if my train of thought is correct, then the problem
 lies with Firefox, which doesn't consider .avif to be an image. If I use
 the bottom drop-down menu to select “all files” then .avif becomes
 selectable.

 I hope I've made myself sufficiently clear...

 Have a nice day.

 Paul.
