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.

WebP images are not bad. Not great, but not bad. The lossless mode is quite good. It is on the software you use to support WebP.

Windows supports WebP. Software that uses Windows APIs to read image files has no problem reading those even if it’s from before 2020. I forgot which application it was but in one case changing the file extension was enough for me.

webp is 13 years old. I’ve only heard of Apple not supporting it.

I see others mention some chat apps, weird but ok.

Don’t know where you heard that but it’s wrong.
