Is this some windows problem I'm too FOSS to understand?

Not really? Just lucky.

Go back and eddit this comment when you download a webp and nothing can use it.

I have plenty of WEBP and every image editing/viewing application I have installed can use it fine. Including, but not limited to:

pdn, GIMP, Krita, Aseprite, InkScape, OpenToonz, IrfanView

I think Apple users have issues with Webm & Webp? But the issue here is using Apple products in the first place. Losing 90% of basic functionality is what you expect when using one of those.

Maybe then I'm the unlucky one that want to use things that don't support it.

And I'm not on Apple lol (linux)

Name one program that doesn't support WebP.

The 1996 free breakfast cereal promotional game Chex Quest (which is actually a total conversion of Ultimate Doom with much of the original data intact).

Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Davinci Resolve

All the memes I send to my friends on messenger basically come from Lemmy. I always have to download the image and use the phone image editor to crop it by one pixel. It then let's me save it, and it saves as jpg/png by default.

Yeah but memes don't need high quality?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

The point is Messenger doesn't allow sending WEBPs

Skill issue, the only actual drawback is that some legacy systems whitelisted image extensions and haven't been updated. Even then just take a screenshot and upload that.

Windows can only display .bmp images apparently. It's an old problem.

Don't think so cause if I change the extension to PNG or JPG it works just fine
