inb4 jwz blocks access to his website from Lemmy

Edit: Jokes aside:

Unlike Google, XScreenSaver will never try to make WebP a thing.

Is WebP bad? If so, why?

That got me too... Webp is pretty sick actually

It's created and backed by Google, so that's no doubt Jamie's main beef.

Also, when it first came out, most OSs didn't have native support, so saving a webp locally, you could only open it via a browser, or you installed a non native image viewer, not unlike jpegs and gifs during Windows 95

Side note, I personally use nomacs as my default image viewer in Win10 - https://nomacs.org/
