I still think webp is good xd

Beside the fact that some software are STILL not supporting it, what do people have against webp ?

The forcing of it from Google, trying to set their standards for the web. What's wrong with jpg and png?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

Webp has better compression than png and jpg which allows websites to load faster and consume less bandwith

We could have jpeg xl, but Google said no

Google's interests actually align with ours here. They want a good image compression format so pages load faster and they get more info from people instead of them bouncing. Besides the last part, we also want that, so it's a win-win. Webp is legitimately a good image format.

I like to save memes from Lemmy to share with friends, and my messaging apps won't send webp's. I use Jerboa and when I long press on the image it says what file type it is. If it's webp, I either sigh and move on, or if it's a really good meme, I screenshot it and crop it. But it's a pain.

Ironically, this post's image is also a webp

honestly, because nothing fucking supports it 😡

idgaf if it's better in every way, if I can't open it in the windows images application (school pc) I'm going to download in PNG instead

Weird, all my software has supported it for years
