It supports transparency like PNGs, and animations like GIFs, and is generally not a bad format on its own due to its balance of quality and file size.

The issue is that support for it is lacking; a large number of major media applications don’t have any WebP functionality, meaning that an image being WebP format only adds an irritating extra step where you have to convert it to PNG to use it. The other issue is that the adoption of the format online is disproportionately high, compared to its adoption by major app developers. It’s bizarrely common to download an image, only to find that you can’t use it because your software (I.e. Photoshop, Clip Studio, OBS) doesn’t support it, so now you have to either convert it to PNG somehow or hunt down a new file that isn’t a WebP. For visual artists of all kinds, this is a tremendous pain in the ass, and it’s pretty obvious that it doesn’t need to be that way in the first place.

balderdash9,

I wish everyone would get on the same page so it would also be better for the end user.

balderdash9,

I use FastStone Image Viewer. Maybe there’s a plug-in I need to install?

Not even an exaggeration. It’s enough to make you question, but sunk cost fallacy is a motherfucker.

Miss the days when everyone wore a suit/dress. Now it’s just pajamas and yoga pants.

balderdash9,

I made this post making fun of Amy Schumer’s appearance (comparing her to a potato). Everyone in the comments told me it was mean and we don’t have to make fun of people for their appearance.

The people on this website are internally inconsistent. I get that it’s just a bunch of random people upvoting and down voting; but it makes it impossible to judge how your post will be received. Unless you’re just straight pandering, there’s a 50% chance you’ll be downvoted for being too insensitive. Even if you see another post be successful doingthe same thing.
