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.[1] let’s maybe use an image format that isn’t owned by them, perhaps
especially given how they’ve recently shown that they will abuse their monopoly ↩︎
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’m not afraid to ask, but haven’t yet received a convincing answer either.

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
JXL is royalty-free
oh i know, i’m very pro jxl. but i was more saying why i don’t like webp even if it is open-licence
