Dear @firefox : Please stop saving images as webp when I drag them out of the browser. Forever stop that. Even if they are webp originally, just give me a setting to auto-convert them to JPEG. When I get a webp file the first thing I have to do is convert it manually if I’m going to do *anything* with it.
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 JPEG2000 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.
