webp is a great format though...
Too bad so many platforms are not compatible with it. I am constantly having to convert the image type to post the image.
thats on the platforms not the format
Never had a problem on Linux
Websites that do not recognize webp normally are fine when you run Linux?
Try changing the file extension. Often the extension is checked but not if the file format matches the extension. All browsers read WebP just fine.
Exactly, great quality and small file sizes. Perfect to reduce web bloat, or loading times when using things like FoundryVTT
Not really. It is better than shitty JPEG encoders but not really much better than good ones. It's lossless was fairly good but still barely worth it. Really we should chuck it for JPEG XL but Google is strong-arming it for unknown reasons.
jpegxl should be the successor, granted - but that doesn't make webp any less good
No, but it also doesn't make it any good to start with.
lol. Yeah it’s a mystery.
