I'm not afraid to ask, but haven't yet received a convincing answer either.

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.^[especially given how they've recently shown that they will abuse their monopoly] let's maybe use an image format that isn't owned by them, perhaps

I rather look at the licenses.

[-] Zeus@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Zeus@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

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

Idk they're less compatible with editing software? I don't think photoshop supports it by default Sucks when you just want to make a quick meme, and google serves you a webp version of a file that has png in the filename, lol

lol. I don't use Photoshop but just reading this I'm convinced it's just Adobe being a little kid and jealous of Google for developing a good compressed format, otherwise adding support for it would be so easy for them that they could just add it in a point release and not even bat an eye (since webp is free and open and all that stuff)

I don't hate webp. I think JPEG-XL is awesome and I hate that Google prefers to work on webp over jxl.

[-] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I thought for a second that this meme would have been uploaded in .webp for the lulz, but alas after downloading the image to my phone and then going into the properties, it's jpg.

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
