i don’t like that everyone hates webp - it’s a really cool format (transparent like png, animates like gif), and everything i use can open it

very little of the software i actually use supports webp, that’s why i don’t like it

@lily Feb 28, 2023, 8:24 PM

what software do you use that doesn’t support webp

and anyway, i wrote a files extension that you can right click and select “Turn Into…” to convert something to another file so that isn’t much of a problem for me

libreoffice, gimp, pantoMIME, converseen, MATEye, a couple of other packages i have scrambled throughout my system…

libreoffice: i suspected

gimp: lie; i can open it in that

pantoMIME, converseen: no clue

MATEye: weird, Eye of GNOME supports it

@lily Feb 28, 2023, 2:09 PM

i am not going to use the microsoft store to get the webp codec

@lily Feb 28, 2023, 2:29 PM

imagine having to use the microsoft store instead of just being able to write sudo apt install webp
