No webp for me, just because Google is pushig it and that is suspect.

I mean... most websites don't use .bmp and that's for a reason... that reason being that it sucks ass.
That’s basically how Lemmy clients work. No, there are 14 Lemmy clients! Ridiculous, we need one universal Lemmy client… there are 15 Lemmy clients.
What is being implied here? That Website A encourages you to download an image from them in WEBP format, but you cannot then upload that image to Websites B through Z because those sites do not support WEBP?
Yes
Not just websites, but software as well. Like image editing software. Which is quite bad.
Tbh, for myself I either want lossless (eg. professional photographs for an app) or don't care about size, due to small volume (eg. my own pics and vids) and also kinda want the originals. And in today's time, bandwidth isn't lacking (for most people, including me). So everything's just a png.
