hi! people hate webp because it was created and propagated by Google as a corporation, and because it is largely unsupported by anything that isn’t Google. hope this helps

Well, WEBP is open-source and it isn't Google's decision that nobody else uses it. It's technologically superior to JPEG and it doesn't really matter who created it as long as it's useful and doesn't hurt anybody. It's also open-source and free, so Google doesn't profit from it. It may have been created by Google, but again, it's open-source and free to contribute to, so Google is far from the only one developing it. There's no reason to choose JPEG over it other than other people choosing not to support it.

As an elder, our clan should have taken care of you. But now... You're the only one left to protect the kits. Hide in the mountains. Keep WolfClan alive. I grant you nine lives. Good luck, Shimmerstar.

if i continue the series i don't plan to make every update this big, or in the exact same style - this was just a trial run.

JPEG vs RAW: Choosing the Best Image Format

Discover the difference between RAW and JPEG file formats, learn why shooting in RAW can enhance the quality of your images and find out whether switching to RAW is the right choice for you.

Singlehandedly the first thing that I usually check when I’m about to start a photoshoot; I make absolutely sure that my images are saved in both JPEG and RAW format. This is because I’ve went through the shame of shooting a commercial gig only to notice that all of the images were shot in JPEG – which isn’t inherently bad if your client wants images that are First of all, a lot of it depends…
