    Webp is there to replace jpegs, gifs, and smaller pngs. It’s better than them in mostly everything, it took around 10 years for something slightly better to come (jxl), and it ran into the same issue, the lack of support from some big asshole company

      Mhm given that the adoption of WebP after 15 Years isn’t fully there and PNG/JPG/GIF are still majorly used fileformats… I guess you are right. Yet still, WebP is more like an export format than a general use format.

        Webp adaptation isnt there for the same reason ipv6 isn’t. Shit aint broke, so why fix it? We can scream til we’re blue in the face but C level duders aren’t gonna put up the scratch unless they have to.
