    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.[1] let’s maybe use an image format that isn’t owned by them, perhaps


    1. especially given how they’ve recently shown that they will abuse their monopoly ↩︎

        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
