Webp is the worst format ever.

Never mind that:

  • it supports transparency;
  • it can be losslessly OR lossfully compressed;
  • it's so efficient it can fit ẏ̷̛̀̏̎̇͜ǫ̷̼̰̳̹́̆̍̐͜͝ủ̷͉̱̻̤̬̯̈́ŗ̸̒ ̸̨̟͈̳͍̱̀̏̓m̵̺͎̋́u̴͇̥͍͐̇̀̇͊̌̚͝m̸̢̢͕̻̬͙̒͗̽͋͆̕͝ in less than 2GB;
  • it can be animated;
  • is more than capable of representing 1:1 any GIF image;

it sucks because the one image viewer I've ever had installed by the ubiquitous (= monopolistic) operating system everyone has by default doesn't support it.

avif is better than it in almost all ways, and jpex xl is even better than that (but not about gifs i think)

webp is essentially a webm file (which is mkv with codec restrictions(vp8/9 and ogg vorbis or opus))

avif is av1 encoded files in a webp like container (but not webm afaik)

jpeg xl is a format made specifically for images

jpeg xl has even less default support tho unless you use a mac
