I'm not afraid to ask, but haven't yet received a convincing answer either.
i don't hate webp. i think png is better, but i think webp is fine
but i really don't want google to have more control over how i browse the internet.^[especially given how they've recently shown that they will abuse their monopoly] let's maybe use an image format that isn't owned by them, perhaps
I rather look at the licenses.
i think that's irrelevant. sure, webp might be open licence, but so is chromium to some extent and that's doing severe damage to internet health
that said, apart from "it's an open format", i can't actually find any definitive answer on the webp licence
Try downloading a png from a site that converts to webp for their CDN services. It's my only real complaint, but it's damn annoying going into the Firefox config just to download a simple image. I don't mind them displaying it as webp, but let me download the source image
Idk they're less compatible with editing software? I don't think photoshop supports it by default Sucks when you just want to make a quick meme, and google serves you a webp version of a file that has png in the filename, lol
lol. I don't use Photoshop but just reading this I'm convinced it's just Adobe being a little kid and jealous of Google for developing a good compressed format, otherwise adding support for it would be so easy for them that they could just add it in a point release and not even bat an eye (since webp is free and open and all that stuff)
I don't hate webp. I think JPEG-XL is awesome and I hate that Google prefers to work on webp over jxl.
I thought for a second that this meme would have been uploaded in .webp for the lulz, but alas after downloading the image to my phone and then going into the properties, it's jpg.
Nothing but I wanted the choice to use jpeg xl (jpeg xl also comes with some cool features)
webp and webm are genuinely pretty good, they work really well for web pages/for transmitting over the network.
jxl is better but support for it is crap
I use text files

Mine can be printed out and read by a blind person!
Finally, ASCII art on mobile that isn't completely mangled.
How wide is your mobile? It's mangled on mine.
Edit: When the ascii art comment is the top most comment, it isn't mangled I guess.
I'm on Voyager, but it works fine on the normal website was well.
It's wonky on desktop, however. The lines double up much like it does on Reddit.
Disappointed to discover that the image in the post is WebP
Here you are:
It seems that both Jerboa and Android Firefox(stable/regular version) can't display jxl, currently.
Motherfuckers only discovering webp now avif is out
AVIF encoding is slooooowwww.
New hardware supports encoding and it's well worth the couple seconds to save without hw support
Everyone's issues with WebP are actually issues with anything around WebP
I used to hate WebP but then installed qt5 image formats something or other and i can now view WebP same as any other standad image type.
I don't think this is simply WebP hate but its about Jpeg-XL superiority. It is a very new codec with very efficient compression
That's fair, XL is undeniably better but at the same time i do feel like webP has gotten some unjustified hate when JpegXL isnt in the picture
I guess thats from windows users whose default image viewer don't support webp, also the set of ms office apps(idk if changed tho)
Same thing yhat you have said tho
Shame on Google killing the support on Chrome for fuck all reason
Fr I’m sick of having to open preview and export to use images I download in other places. Bout to just start screenshotting instead of downloading.
